Universal Acceptance refers to the occurrence of users experiencing browser and email bugs when trying to use new gTLDs, including IDNs. Domain names in a TLD must be useable in applications regardless of the written script, length or newness of the TLD. In some instances, Internet users trying to use the newly delegated gTLDs, can experience bugs or the inability to access/register the sites.

- Longer TLD Names
- Non-Latin based TLDs
- Rapid addition of TLDs
- International Email
