The Voice of our Clients

“The Trademark Clearinghouse makes it easy for us to support our clients’ online brand protection activity. When a trademark is registered with the TMCH, it makes domain registration in Sunrise simple and efficient. The fact we can automate the process via API helps us ensure a quick and seamless experience for our clients.”

“We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the outstanding support provided by the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) team. Their responsiveness and commitment to service have been exceptional. Most notably, they went above and beyond by assisting us on a public holiday to ensure that a critical trade mark verification was processed in time to meet a Sunrise period deadline. Their timely intervention and willingness to support us outside of regular working hours made a significant difference and enabled us to secure important domain rights for our client.”
