History of the TLD
The .lease top‑level domain is a generic top‑level domain (gTLD) introduced as part of ICANN's New gTLD Program. It was delegated in 2014 to provide a dedicated namespace for leasing and rental services, including property, vehicles, and equipment.
Main Use and Industry Position
The .lease extension serves organisations and individuals involved in leasing and rental services. It provides a clear and direct domain option for businesses offering leasing contracts, making it a niche alternative to broader TLDs like .com or .net.
Comparison to Other TLDs
Compared to .com and .net, .lease is more descriptive and industry-specific, immediately indicating a focus on leasing. Other related TLDs like .rent or .property serve similar markets, but .lease directly conveys contractual leasing services. Its recognition is lower than legacy TLDs but offers stronger branding opportunities within the leasing sector.
