CentralNic chief executive Ben Crawford said: “.LUXURY is one of the most successful new TLDs to launch so far, having already signed over 500 brands in their Sunrise.”
“Other companies applied for dozens, even hundreds, of top-level domains, and so far few of them have come close to what .LUXURY has already achieved. We are therefore very excited to be launching the DOMAIN.LUXURY website.”

Société Cartier, Gucci Group and Gianni Versace SpA, during its initial 60 day window for trademark holders only.Following the close of this initial period, where domains were offered at USD1,199 for trademark holders, the www.domain.luxury site will now offer domains for USD699.
