Search .COOP availability with NiceNIC and build a trusted cooperative web presence with domain registration, transfer review, DNS tools, SSL, business email, bulk search, and reseller API support. .COOP is a restricted sponsored TLD for eligible cooperatives and organizations that support the cooperative movement.
Need more than one .COOP name? Use bulk domain search or upgrade account level for reseller workflows.
.COOP is designed for cooperatives, cooperative associations, organizations controlled by cooperatives, and entities principally dedicated to serving cooperatives. Its eligibility rules help keep the namespace focused on the global cooperative movement.
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 .COOP 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.
The .COOP namespace is much smaller than open generic TLDs because eligibility is restricted. That smaller size is part of its identity: buyers choose .COOP when cooperative status and member-owned trust are more important than mass-market volume.

This chart compares the global domain market with .COOP as a small restricted sponsored TLD. .COOP is included as a separate reference point for scale, while the global category totals use Q1 2026 domain-name-base data.
A .COOP domain is not built for unrestricted mass registration. Its value comes from cooperative eligibility, trust, clarity, and alignment with the global cooperative movement.
.COOP is available only to cooperatives and other organizations meeting the eligibility criteria, which helps preserve trust in the namespace.
A .COOP domain immediately communicates cooperative purpose, member ownership, community orientation, or support for the cooperative model.
Because eligibility can be checked, .COOP works best when the organization can document its cooperative status or qualifying support role.
A reliable public .COOP-only multi-year registration growth series was not found for this page build. Following the template rule, this module uses current count snapshots for selected cooperative, nonprofit, community, and mission-related TLDs, including .COOP, instead of inventing an annual growth curve.
Publicly reported premium .COOP domain sales are limited, so this section does not display a fixed sales benchmark. For buyers considering a .COOP domain, the main value usually comes from verified cooperative identity, member trust, mission fit, and long-term organizational use rather than published resale history.
A member-owned cooperative, cooperative association, service organization, credit union-style entity, and reseller supporting cooperative customers may each use .COOP differently. NiceNIC helps you search availability, compare alternatives, and manage domains that fit the organization's eligibility and identity.
Use .COOP when the organization wants the domain itself to communicate cooperative ownership and member trust.
Use .COOP for associations, federations, or networks that represent or support cooperative organizations.
Eligible organizations that principally serve cooperatives can use .COOP to signal their role in the ecosystem.
Use reseller workflows when you manage domains for cooperative customers or need to compare .COOP with .ORG, .GROUP, and community-related alternatives.
If you already own .COOP 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 .COOP 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 .COOP. 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.

Public premium .COOP sales are not widely reported in public domain-sales databases, so this page does not display fabricated premium-sales bars or unrelated TLD sales.
