In February 2013, the related company Uniregistrar Corporation became an ICANN-accredited registrar and launched under the licensed Uniregistry brand name in 2014.

[2][3] Uniregistry Corporation was officially founded in 2012 by Frank Schilling, one of the largest private domain name portfolio owners in the world,[4][5] and was registered in the Cayman Islands.

However, the domain Uniregistry.com was registered six years earlier and the company filed an intent to use the name in the Cayman Islands in 2010.

In January 2014, Uniregistry Inc. became a subsidiary in Newport Beach, California to house a West Coast service and support team.

[17] In November 2014, the registrar began accepting the cryptocurrency Topcoin to pay for domain name registrations, inbound transfers, and renewals across its extensions.

Schilling has said of the extension: By assuming the registry operations of .hiv, we are taking our core skills and putting them at the service of one of the most urgent challenges of humankind.

[31]Uniregistry has been the lead sponsor for NamesCon, the domain name industry's largest conference, for at least three years.

[70] More than 10,000 .click domains were registered on the first day of general availability (outlets initially reported 3,800 registrations, but Schilling confirmed the higher figure).

This strategy differs from the registry's previous launches in which Schilling's company registered thousands of domains.

This increase caused the total number of generic top-level domains registered to pass the 500,000 threshold.

[25] As of April 2014, the extensions .link, .sexy, and .tattoo have been registered more than 20,000, 12,318, and 5,932 times, respectively, though these figures include Uniregistry's activated reserved domains.
