.fund

.fund is a generic top-level domain built around the word “fund”, which can refer to investment funds, fundraising, pooled resources and financial or charitable initiatives.

It can be a natural fit for investment-related projects, venture funds, grant programs, nonprofit fundraising campaigns and platforms that help people raise or allocate money. The extension can make the financial purpose of a domain immediately visible, which is useful when that purpose is central to the project.

The word also carries expectations. A .fund address does not indicate that an investment product is licensed, regulated, safe or suitable, and it should not be treated as evidence of financial legitimacy. Projects involving regulated financial services still need to comply with the laws that apply to their activities and markets.

.fund is a generic top-level domain with general registration through participating registrars, subject to registry and ICANN policies. Availability of a particular name can also be affected by reserved names, premium classifications and third-party rights.
