About .fail
.fail borrows a word that became internet shorthand for a mistake or blooper, popularized by "fail" as an exclamation and fail-compilation video culture rather than any formal use. It suits joke sites, blooper or gag pages, and self-deprecating personal projects, and reads as a punchline rather than a brand when used straight.
Suits: Meme pages, blooper compilations, and joke or gag sites.
It is one of 20 informal and novelty endings in the catalog.
What a .fail costs
$90 a year. One flat shelf price in dollars, drawn from your credit balance — there is no first-year discount that triples at renewal, and no fee for the privacy, because the name is registered in our name by default rather than as a paid extra.
The catalog lands on 5 price bands, and .fail sits in the $90 one alongside 148 other endings. 142 endings are cheaper and 97 cost more.
| Term | Price | Per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | $90 | $90 |
| 2 years | $180 | $90 |
| 3 years | $270 | $90 |
| 5 years | $450 | $90 |
| 10 years | $900 | $90 |
DNS on the name is included and never billed. This registry supports DNSSEC.
Registering a .fail anonymously
Offbook never asks who you are. Opening an account takes an email address you invent, a password and an invite code — no legal name, no address, no phone number, no card and no identity documents. Funding is crypto, so no bank or processor is in a position to demand them.
The .fail is then held in our name rather than yours, so the public record has nothing of yours to show. You keep operational control of the name — DNS, renewals and where it points — from the desk or through the API. Read more on anonymous domain registration.

Nothing on file. Nothing to leak.
An email you invent, an invite code, and crypto. That is the entire relationship.
