.online is a top-level domain operated by the Radix domain registry and received approval from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) in 2017, officially entering the Chinese market. With over 600,000 registrations worldwide, .online domains are among the top ten in the global new top-level domain market. The Betting.online domain was registered in April 2019 and consists of the prefix "Betting" and the ".online" suffix, conveying the meaning of "online betting," making it well-suited for online betting and gaming projects.

Looking at the industry distribution of registrations under ".online," the top three industries are technology, finance, and fashion. A few years ago, Apple had submitted applications for over 50 ".online" domains. As the internet becomes more prevalent, "online" has become synonymous with many websites. Examples include Chinese education online and beauty online. With the scarcity of other top-level domain resources, using new top-level domains has become a new choice.
