Recover domains you don't even know you're missing

Priority AutoCatch monitors domain expirations within supported top-level domains and intercepts them at the registry level before they're released to registrars or picked up by drop-catching services.

This means GlobalBlock protects you not just from new registrations but also from domains registered before your subscription began. When those expire or are deleted, Priority AutoCatch automatically claims them on your behalf.

Since launch, Priority AutoCatch has recovered more than 10,000 domains for GlobalBlock customers — including tommyhilfiger.shop, jpmorganchase.vip, googlecloud.solutions, and microsoft.services.

See exactly what GlobalBlock is doing for your brand

GlobalBlock customers gain access to Domain Vulnerability Containment Reports (DVCRs) — customized snapshots with concrete data on the protection value your subscription delivers.

  • Auto-caught domains blocked on your behalf
  • Risk assessments for high-demand brand terms
  • Priority AutoCatch recovery activity
  • AI-generated recommendations for additional coverage

How does GlobalBlock work with existing Domain Blocking Services?

101domain offers two protection solutions: Domains Protected Marks List (DPML) and AdultBlock.

Existing DPML and AdultBlock subscribers will have the opportunity to extend their coverage to GlobalBlock. Contact us for your upgrade options.

GlobalBlock Frequently Asked Questions

There are four (4) types of rights that can be used with GlobalBlock Services:

  • Registered trademark, including:
    • Geographical indicators
    • Marks protected by statute or treaty
  • Unregistered trademark
  • Company or organization name
  • Celebrity name

Rights must be a minimum of three (3) characters long.

GlobalBlock is owned and managed by Brand Safety Alliance, LLC, A GoDaddy Registry company. It is part of a new initiative developed in collaboration with Identity Digital and other industry leaders that aims to create enhanced solutions for brand owners to protect their online identity.
The key difference between GlobalBlock and GlobalBlock+ lies in the advanced protection features offered by GlobalBlock+. With GlobalBlock+, you gain unlimited blocking of main labels (your brand or trademark in the form of a domain name) as well as the ability to block homograph / homoglyph confusable characters. By blocking these variations, GlobalBlock+ effectively combats homograph attacks, typosquatting, and other malicious activities that could deceive unsuspecting users.
A homograph or homoglyph is a term used to describe words or characters that have the same spelling or appearance but possess different meanings or origins. In the context of domain names, a homograph refers to visually similar characters, such as the Cyrillic letter "м" and the Latin letter "m" or "rn" instead of the letter "m", that can be used to deceive or impersonate legitimate brands.
Reach out to a member of our team and we will provide you with a report that includes a list of all domains and variations of your brand available to be protected by GlobalBlock.
All DPML domains are included in GlobalBlock, but they are separate services. If you are looking to upgrade from DPML to GlobalBlock, please contact a member of our team for special pricing.
GlobalBlock+ blocks all variations of a main label that include easily confusable characters, such as replacing an "l" with a "1" and an "e" with a "3" and other visually similar characters, for example, the Cyrillic letter "м" and the Latin letter "m" or "rn" instead of the letter "m".
Existing DPML+ owners who upgrade to GlobalBlock+ can include up to four (4) additional labels for protection, of the ones specified in their DPML+ service. If you are looking to upgrade, please contact a member of our team for special pricing.
Yes, existing DPML+ owners that have specified additional variants will be able to add a maximum of four (4) labels with GlobalBlock+. These labels must be the same as what was specified for DPML+.
If you are looking to upgrade from DPML to GlobalBlock, please contact a member of our team for special pricing.
Your SMD file must be valid to be accepted for verification. Contact a member of our team and we can assist you in renewing your Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) SMD file.

If you do not have an SMD file, you may still apply for the GlobalBlock service if you are a rights holder who has a:

  • Intellectual Property Right (IPR) number from a previously verified block from any provider. Contact a member of our team for details:
    • AdultBlock
    • DPML
    • MPML
    • dotXXX Sunrise B (SRB) Registration
  • Existing demonstrable right through other methods, including:
    • Registered trademark, including:
      • Geographical indicators
      • Marks protected by statute or treaty
    • Unregistered trademark
    • Company or organization name
    • Celebrity name

The BSA has its own verification process to which you are able to submit your existing demonstrable right. Contact us for more information about this process.

Yes, if you have previously been verified through a previous domain block subscription, you may utilize this right as your verification. Please contact a member of our team to get started.

The following documentation may be provided in support of the verification application of an unregistered trademark:

  • Dated advertising and marketing materials (e.g., brochures, pamphlets, catalogues, product manuals, displays or signage, press releases, social media marketing materials etc.)
  • Links to websites, screen shots from websites
  • Headed and dated stationery, receipts, invoices
  • Dated photographs or scans of product labels, storefronts, billboards
  • Articles of Incorporation/Articles of Association

The BSA has a rights verification process that is available to you for the GlobalBlock. Contact us for more information about this process.

Yes, GlobalBlock will block all eligible premium domain names automatically.
No, only domain names currently available will be blocked by GlobalBlock. However, GlobalBlock’s Priority Auto-Catch feature will monitor each registry’s zone file for already-registered domain names matching your blocked name and add them to your block as soon as they become available for re-registration, protecting you from future domain squatters and drop-catching tactics.
No. Once you have your subscription, you will receive automatic protection for any new TLDs that are added to GlobalBlock, at no additional cost. At renewal, your subscription price will increase accordingly.
All blocked domain names will include a message in the RDAP service such as:
“This name subscribes to the GlobalBlock / GlobalBlock+ product; therefore, this name is not available for registration”.
Yes, multiple parties can block the same trademark, just as multiple parties can hold matching verified rights registered in different jurisdictions. Any label that is blocked by more than one rights holder cannot be unblocked without the consent of all applicable rights holders.

To comply with DENIC eG (.de) and CNNIC’s (.cn) local policies, Specialized Domains use alternative protection methods rather than standard direct blocking.

This means several important things:

  • Unlike standard blocks, these do not have 'Priority AutoCatch,' so it is vital that you do not let any current .de or .cn registrations lapse, as they may not be automatically recovered if lost. The BSA will use its best endeavors to monitor and pursue these domains on an ongoing basis.
  • RDDS/WHOIS information may differ from that displayed for standard GlobalBlock domains, reflecting local registry data policies.
  • Unblocking is achieved through a transfer at the current transfer and prevailing registration fee.
  • Participating registries may require that domains resolve to a standard BSA landing page showing that the domain is unavailable.
