Revenues [Abstract] |
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | Revenues The Company generates revenues in the U.S.; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); China; and certain other countries, including, but not limited to Canada, Australia, and Japan. The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by geography, based on the billing addresses of our customers:
| Year Ended December 31,
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2019
| (In thousands)
U.S | $ | 851,299 |  |  | $ | 804,647 |  |  | $ | 772,586 |
EMEA | 231,686 |  |  | 214,204 |  |  | 206,975 |
China | 99,727 |  |  | 113,048 |  |  | 119,291 |
Other | 144,864 |  |  | 133,153 |  |  | 132,809 |
Total revenues | $ | 1,327,576 |  |  | $ | 1,265,052 |  |  | $ | 1,231,661 |
Revenues in the table above are attributed to the country of domicile and the respective regions in which registrars are located; however, this may differ from the regions where the registrars operate or where registrants are located. Revenues for each region may be impacted by registrars reincorporating, relocating, or from acquisitions or changes in affiliations of resellers. Revenues for each region may also be impacted by registrars domiciled in one region, registering domain names in another region. Major Customers Our largest customer accounted for approximately 33%, 34%, and 33% of revenues in 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. The Company does not believe that the loss of this customer would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business because, in that event, end-users of this customer would transfer to the Company’s other existing customers. Deferred Revenues As payment for domain name registrations and renewals are due in advance of our performance, we record these amounts as deferred revenues. The increase in the deferred revenues balance in 2021 is primarily driven by amounts billed in 2021 for domain name registrations and renewals to be recognized as revenues in future periods, offset by refunds for domain name renewals deleted during the 45-day grace period, and $752.2 million of revenues recognized that were included in the deferred revenues balance at December 31, 2020. The higher deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2021 also reflects an increase in the volume of early renewal transactions that occurred before the .com price increase became effective on September 1, 2021. The balance of deferred revenues as of December 31, 2021 represents our aggregate remaining performance obligations. Amounts included in current deferred revenues are all expected to be recognized in revenues within 12 months, except for a portion of deferred revenues that relates to domain name renewals that are deleted in the 45-day grace period following the transaction. The long-term deferred revenues amounts will be recognized in revenues over several years and in some cases up to ten years.
