Exact strongest-channel coverage from the current order interface; lower-priced channels support smaller subsets.
A TLD on this list means the provider publishes a catch path for the extension. It does not guarantee that every expiring name is orderable or that registry eligibility rules are satisfied.

FAQ
GNAME backorder questions
How much does backordering with GNAME cost?
Channel 1 from $65. The strongest channel currently starts at $65 for many TLDs and $180 for .ai; cheaper channels trade coverage and published success rate for price. A backorder is not a guaranteed acquisition, and a contested name can follow the service's auction rule: auction on equal-price collision.
Which TLDs does GNAME support?
The public source currently enumerates 48 supported extensions. Domain.Guru reproduces that exact checked list below; individual-name eligibility and registry restrictions can still differ.
What happens if several people backorder the same name at GNAME?
Auction on equal-price collision. A sole successful order receives the name. GNAME confirms an auction when competing orders use the same price, but does not publish a stable participant-scope rule for every channel.
Does GNAME support early access or pre-release names?
No public Identity Digital early-tier map. GNAME publishes channel strength, not a registry-specific early-release programme.
