.bar is an internet domain that is specifically geared for bars, pubs and nightclubs, including bar and restaurant guides, critics, delivery services, wine and liquor, and related industries. It's a new gTLD that's owned by Mexico City based company PUNTO 2012. Domain .BAR was released on June 11, 2014 and its launch is considered to be part of a new phase of the Internet, where domain endings are more defined and better categorised. [1]

History

The .BAR launch was divided into three phases: Trademark Holder (Sunrise), Priority Pre-Registration (Landrush) and General Availability. Each phase has specific application requirements: [2]

Trademark Holders Registration - Sunrise

From April 9, 2014, at 18:00 UTC to June 8, 2014, at 18:00 UTC, trademark holders could submit an application to register a .BAR domain containing their owned mark, before it was available to the public.

Priority Pre-Registration - Landrush

From June 11, 2014, at 18:00 UTC to July 10, 2014, at 18:00 UTC, customers could purchase .BAR domain names at a premium price.

General Availability

Beginning July 14, 2014, at 18:00 UTC, customers can register .BAR domain names on a first-come, first-served basis. Bulk .BAR registration is supported during General Availability. Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during this period.

Other Information

.BAR domain names can have up to 63 characters. .BAR domains cannot be registered with special characters such as & and # in them.

The .BAR extension supports Latin IDN (Internationalized Domain Name) characters. [3]
