Bottom line
Over 3 years, NicNames is the cheapest way to own .group, at $49.50.
.group is a generic domain for organisations, teams, communities and groups of companies. It was added to the root zone on 30 July 2015. The word covers everything from a local volunteer group to a big company with several businesses, so it's very flexible.
.group is run by Identity Digital, formerly called Donuts. Donuts first held it through a company called Romeo Town, LLC. Like most Donuts domains, it later moved to Binky Moon, LLC, the Identity Digital company listed in the official records today.
Anyone can register a .group name. You don't need to be a registered association or company. People and organisations can register any available name through a registrar, subject to the usual rules on reserved names, trademarks and abuse.
Parent companies are a major user, like brand.group for a company that owns several businesses. Many companies already have "Group" in their legal name, so smith.group can match "Smith Group" exactly. A parent company can use its .group address for investor and company information, while each business keeps its own website.
Professional associations, community groups, clubs, volunteer projects, study groups and team websites also use .group.
The domain doesn't explain who runs the group or how to join, so your website should make that clear. If you collect membership fees or donations, say who manages the money and what kind of organisation you are.
A .group name doesn't mean an organisation is officially registered or recognised by any official body.
