Why .coop? Because the letters after the dot in your web address tell the world more about your business than anything else online. And first impressions matter. Are you a commercial business, an organisation, a network. A bar even? It’s all there in your domain suffix.

A .coop domain is the best way to tell the world about you. And it speaks volumes.

It says you’re part of a global movement of more than 750,000 cooperatives, with over 85 million members, which includes some of the world’s most successful businesses. That you put people first. That you are ethical and fair. That you’re great to do business with. That you’re not just another dotcom. That you’re a cooperative. 

Now’s the time to get a .coop name for your cooperative.

The International Cooperative Alliance has developed a global identity for the co-op movement. The Cooperative Marque.

Together .coop and the Marque are symbols of the global cooperative movement and our collective identity. They differentiate your cooperative from a private or investor-owned business.

When somebody sees a .coop email, a .coop website or the Marque, they know they’re talking to a cooperative.

Today, in more than 100 countries around the world, thousands of cooperatives benefit from using a .coop domain and the Cooperative Marque.
