Big news: Dotup helped four applicants secure ICANN Applicant Support Program (ASP) fee reductions — a 4/4 success that turned policy into real savings. Read how we navigated the process and what this means for new gTLD applicants: https://wix.to/BUikE5I

In November 2025, a small but highly telling development unfolded within the ICANN ecosystem. The Applicant Support Program (ASP), often discussed in abstract terms, began producing tangible outcomes. At Dotup, we advised four applicants during this phase, and all four secured approval.

4 out of 4. Approved.

In November 2025, we advised 4 applicants on ICANN’s Applicant Support Program (ASP) — and every single one was approved.

Each secured a reduced evaluation fee of $56,000.

That’s not luck. That’s positioning.

New gTLD applications are complex and unforgiving. Most failures don’t happen because applicants aren’t eligible — they happen because the application isn’t structured the right way.

At , we focus exactly on that.
From eligibility assessment to how evaluates financials, policy alignment, and operational readiness — every detail matters.

The outcome?
Stronger applications. Clean approvals. Real advantage going into the 2026

In late March 2026 news of airtelblack.com went viral. Users on X and Reddit shared a parody site that looked like an official Airtel Black page but instead mocked the telecom operator’s customer service.
