Managing Your .xxx Membership ID
If you want to use your .xxx domain or publish content (resolve) to the Internet, you must complete the ICM Registry's free membership application process to obtain a valid .xxx membership ID.
When you purchase your domain name, the registry emails you within 24 hours and provides information on completing this process. The registry confirms your status as a member of the sponsored adult entertainment community as well as your contact information.
Once the registry validates the membership, you must associate your membership ID with your domain name before it can resolve to the Internet. One membership ID can be used for all of the .xxx domain names you register.
NOTE: You are not required to complete the ICM Registry's membership application process if you have a defensive registration to block a domain name from becoming a .xxx domain name. If you purchased your .xxx domain during the Sunrise B phase, you cannot manage your domain or enter a membership ID.
