The gambling sector now has its own domain name.
Domain registry operator Afilias introduced last week .BET, an Internet address designed for sports betting, gambling, games of chance and all other online and offline wagering activities.
Registration for the domain is initially limited to eligible trademark holders, which have been given until February 4 to apply for the new address.
Then from February 8 to February 12, the .BET domain will be made available using a Dutch auction format. Afilias said the available names will start at a maximum price, which will be lowered in decrements daily as registrants decide at which price point they want to register.
The public landrush period will end on February 12.
The open registration for the new domain will begin on March 3.
