Is .cafe right for your idea?
Show what makes the place yours
A quiet workspace, a breakfast stop and a busy community cafe offer different experiences. Use your own photographs and a short description to set expectations about seating, food and the atmosphere.
Keep the name easy to share
The domain ending is cafe, without an accent. Read the complete address aloud and check how it looks on a menu, cup or window. A short venue name usually needs no extra cafe word before the ending.

Questions about .cafe domains
Can .cafe work for an online coffee business?
Yes, it can describe a coffee community or online business as well as a venue. If you sell beans or equipment rather than welcome visitors, make that clear; .coffee or .shop may express the offer more directly.
Which .cafe registration periods can I choose?
Standard .cafe registrations are available for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 years. Displayed term prices are full upfront charges. Confirm your term and renewal price at order review.
Can I connect a .cafe domain to an existing website?
Yes, if the website service supports a custom domain. Follow that service’s DNS instructions. Domain registration and any paid website service are separate.
What happens after I find a domain?
Add one or more available names to your basket, then continue to registration. Enter the owner details and review the registration term and total before payment. Availability is provisional until the registrar confirms registration.
Will UKC charge me automatically at renewal?
No. UKC sends renewal reminders and an invoice. You need to pay the invoice to renew; UKC does not automatically charge you. Keep your contact details current so you receive reminders.
