Need lower .CAT pricing for many domains? Upgrade account level for bulk registration and reseller pricing.
A .CAT domain can support a Catalan-language website, a cultural project, a publisher, a local-market brand, an ecommerce storefront, or an agency client site. NiceNIC supports the full path after search: registration, renewal, transfer handling, DNS, bulk domain lists, reseller API use, and account support.
Add funds and pay for domain services using supported crypto options such as USDT, BTC, ETH, and LTC. Automated crypto deposit recording helps account balances update quickly after successful confirmation, with no extra NiceNIC processing fee for automated deposits.
NiceNIC provides real human support, not only scripted replies. Our team can review your domain needs, explain practical options, and give account-level, transfer, bulk registration, and reseller suggestions to help your domain business grow.
NiceNIC does not take arbitrary action against domains. Abuse reports are reviewed based on available evidence, policies, and registry requirements, with domain owners guided to review, fix, or explain reported issues where appropriate.
Manage .CAT together with 2,500+ domain extensions from one NiceNIC account, including country-code, generic, and new domain extensions. This helps businesses, investors, and resellers build global domain coverage more efficiently.
NiceNIC supports 47+ website languages, creating a multilingual registrar experience for international users and teams. This makes domain registration, renewal, transfer, account management, and support easier across different markets.
For hosting providers, agencies, platforms, and domain resellers, NiceNIC supports reseller API access for domain registration, renewal, transfer, DNS, account-level pricing, and custom nameserver services.
IANA lists .CAT as a sponsored top-level domain managed by Fundacio puntCAT, and the registry describes .CAT as the first Internet domain created for a linguistic and cultural community. The registry reported more than 117,000 active .cat domains in 2026, while DomainTools shows a current snapshot of 115,248 .cat domains. This section explains .CAT market scale, community positioning, related cultural-domain comparisons, and practical use cases for buyers who want to register, transfer, or manage .CAT domains.
Registry 2026 active-domain statement for .CAT.
.CAT share of 392.5M total domain registrations.
Total domain registrations across all TLDs in Q1 2026.
This chart compares major domain categories using Q1 2026 domain-name-base data and separately shows the current .CAT count snapshot. .CAT is a sponsored/community gTLD, so the standalone .CAT row is displayed for visibility and is not added outside the total market.
The point for buyers is practical: .CAT communicates Catalan language, culture, identity, and community intent directly, while still using the standard domain registration and management workflow expected by serious website owners.
.CAT is designed for people and organizations that use Catalan online or promote Catalan culture, making the extension meaningful before a visitor even opens the website.
For publishers, institutions, ecommerce projects, community groups, and cultural brands, .CAT can signal proximity and language relevance to Catalan-speaking audiences.
Because .CAT has registry rules tied to truthful intended use, the namespace is more focused than a fully generic open extension.
Rather than inventing year-by-year growth, this module compares .CAT with selected current language, culture, and regional community TLD snapshots for scale context.
No verified public premium .CAT completed-sale examples were found.
A cultural organization, a publisher, an ecommerce team, a digital agency, and a reseller platform do not manage domains the same way. Choose the option that matches your situation and prepare a truthful intended-use explanation if the registry or registrar workflow requests it.
Use .CAT when your website publishes Catalan-language content, promotes Catalan culture, or serves a Catalan-speaking audience.
Use .CAT for local-market storefronts, campaigns, landing pages, community programs, or multilingual brand experiences connected with Catalan users.
Help clients check availability, register domains, manage nameservers, and keep renewals organized in one account.
Connect domain registration and management workflows through NiceNIC reseller tools when .CAT is part of a wider international TLD offering.
If you already own .CAT domains elsewhere, transfer decisions should not be based only on one renewal invoice. Check transfer eligibility, ownership access, billing reliability, support response time, API needs, and long-term domain management.
Paste multiple .CAT names, remove duplicates, review the count, and continue to bulk registration. This is useful for domain investors, brand teams, agencies, hosting providers, and resellers.
Enter one name per line, with or without .CAT. The tool removes duplicates and prepares a clean list for bulk registration.
If your business sells hosting, websites, SaaS, agency services, or brand protection packages, NiceNIC reseller APIs can support domain registration, renewal, transfer, DNS, and account management.

.CAT is a sponsored top-level domain for the Catalan linguistic and cultural community. It is commonly used by Catalan-language websites, cultural organizations, publishers, institutions, local brands, community initiatives, and projects that want a Catalan digital identity.
IANA lists Fundacio puntCAT as the sponsoring organization for .CAT, with registration services available through ICANN-accredited registrars. You can start with the .CAT domain search on this page.

Yes. Registry rules require registrants to accept the .CAT Registration Policy and make a truthful declaration of intended use when requested. The use should be connected with the Catalan linguistic and cultural community, such as Catalan-language content, Catalan culture, or a relevant community project.
Yes. You can search one name on this page, or prepare multiple names through bulk domain search. For larger lists, prepare clear brand, project, client, or intended-use notes so support can help you review names before purchase.
A .CAT website can be multilingual when the project has a genuine Catalan-language, Catalan-culture, or Catalan-community connection. The important point is that the declared intended use should be truthful and consistent with registry policy.
Eligible .CAT transfers usually follow the standard gTLD transfer flow: unlock the domain, obtain the Auth Code / EPP code, confirm the domain is eligible for domain transfer, and make sure the registrant contact can receive transfer confirmation messages.
.CAT should be evaluated primarily as a meaningful-use domain for Catalan language, culture, and community projects, not as a guaranteed resale asset. Public premium .CAT completed-sale examples were not found for this page build, so buyers should focus on real project fit, brand clarity, and policy compliance.

WHOIS privacy availability can vary by TLD, registry policy, and registration channel. You can review NiceNIC domain privacy options and contact support before registration if privacy handling is important for your .CAT domain.
Yes. NiceNIC supports bulk domain management, reseller API integration, and global TLD coverage, making it suitable for agencies, hosting providers, developers, and platforms that need to manage domain services at scale.
