Why become a Registrar
Any Canadian individual or organization with the technological, service and financial base to serve members of the public can apply to become a Registrar.
There is no "typical" Registrar—but if you’re like many of our Registrars, you are already in the business of providing Internet services to customers.
The benefits of being a Registrar include:
- Earning revenue from dot-ca domain name registration and services such as facilitating registration, transfer, renewal and modification of registration data for clients.
- Gaining a competitive advantage by offering dot-ca registration as a service that complements your primary business lines.
- Building your brand and status. As a Registrar, your organization name may be placed on the Registrar list that is publicly available on the CIRA website, your organization’s name will be displayed on specific dot-ca WHOIS searches, and you are entitled to use the CIRA logo in your promotions.
- Increasing your profile and business reach. Every customer that uses your dot-ca domain name—in an e-mail address, for example—gives your company higher search ratings and increases your profile among Internet users.
Take advantage of the opportunity to become a Registrar and extend your business today.
