When .africa is the right choice
Choose .africa when your audience spans several countries and a single country-code domain would be limiting — pan-African startups, continental NGOs, media outlets, conferences and export businesses all fit. If your customers are almost entirely in Cameroon, .cm usually communicates better.
What is included
- Free WHOIS privacy where the registry permits it
- Full DNS management with Cloudflare proxy toggles
- Transfer lock and expiry reminders
- Works with our hosting, or with DNS pointed anywhere else
Availability and pricing
Because .africa is younger than .com, plenty of short exact-match names are still free. Current pricing appears in the search results as soon as you check a name; registrations are annual and renew at the standard rate shown before you pay.
Frequently asked questions
Is .africa restricted to African organisations?
- Registration is open, though the extension is intended for those with a genuine connection to the continent. Standard registrant contact details apply.
Can I use .africa with email?
- Yes. You can create mailboxes on your hosting account or point MX records to any external mail provider.
