Start with the name you actually want

Explore words that describe your project, your interests or your community. Check a few favourites before settling for a name with extra numbers or a long prefix.

Standard and selected premium names have different annual prices. A name used in a guide is only an example: search to see whether your choice is available, premium, reserved or already registered.

How to choose and register a name · Explore setup guides

Register online

Check availability, create an account and complete payment. Then manage your name and its DNS records from your dashboard.

DNS you can script

A, AAAA, CNAME, TXT, MX, SRV and CAA records. Use the REST API, dyndns2 for your router and ACME DNS-01 for certificate validation.

Plan for HTTPS

Browsers with the .app HSTS preload require HTTPS. Your hosting provider or web server must have a valid certificate for your hostname.

Hosting presets

Connect Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, GitHub Pages, Minecraft or your own server. Add your hostname at the provider, apply DNS and check HTTPS.

Clear annual pricing

Standard names are £4.99 a year; new premium registrations are £99.00 a year. Both include the same DNS features. See prices and renewal details.

Report abuse

Phishing, malware and spam are prohibited. Read our acceptable use policy or submit an abuse report with the affected name and evidence.

Built for people who deploy things

Homelab & self-hosting

Point an A or AAAA record at your public IP, use DDNS when it changes, and configure a reverse proxy with a valid TLS certificate. Inbound access depends on your ISP and router.

Side projects & MVPs

A landing page needs an address today, not a .com on a ten-year plan. Point at Vercel or Netlify and ship.

Minecraft Java servers

Players type yourname.uk.app, the SRV record handles the port. No more sharing raw IPs in Discord.

Deployment automation

Use scoped API tokens to manage records from deployment scripts. See the API documentation for authentication, examples and current integration availability.

How to connect your uk.app name

Choose your setup: dynamic DNS, Vercel custom domain or GitHub Pages website.

  1. Choose and register a name. Check availability above, sign in and pay for annual registration. A newly registered name can show a parking page until you configure it.
  2. Set up DNS. Use A or AAAA for a server IP, or the CNAME target supplied by your hosting provider. Hosting presets help enter the appropriate records; your provider may also require a verification TXT record.
  3. Enable HTTPS and check the result. Add the hostname to your hosting account, issue a certificate and use the domain health check in your dashboard. DNS caches may take time to update.

Follow the hosting preset examples and dynamic DNS instructions for your setup.

Questions before you register

Am I buying a domain or a subdomain?

You are registering the right to use a name such as yourname.uk.app under uk.app, subject to the terms of service. This is a subdomain registration, not ownership of uk.app or a separate top-level domain.

Can I replace the parking page with my home server?

Yes. Change the DNS records in your dashboard to your server's public IP and configure that hostname on the server. If your connection uses carrier-grade NAT, DNS alone will not make the server reachable. You need an inbound connection method supported by your network.

Does registration include website hosting or a certificate for my server?

Registration includes DNS management and a parking page. Your website runs on your chosen hosting or server, where you must configure HTTPS. ACME DNS-01 support can help your certificate client validate the name, including wildcard names.

Can I add my name as a separate Cloudflare zone?

Do not assume that a provider will accept a uk.app subdomain as an independent zone or registrable domain. Check its requirements before purchasing. Connecting a custom hostname to a hosting service is different from adding a standalone DNS zone. See our service transparency page.

How do renewals work?

Registration is billed annually and renews automatically. Review your payments and manage your subscription in the billing panel. See pricing and included features before registering.
