Why get a suba Handle instead of a Handle?
1. Country codes are well-known
We're not introducing anything new – everyone knows and searches for their country code and country-specific websites.
2. Handles can be costly
The best Handles are often taken and sold at high prices on secondary markets. Our suba Handles offer better value.
3. Suba Handles are more meaningful
With a glance, you can easily identify where a person, business, or organization is from.
4. Join a community
Your suba Handle is a part of a national community. It will also hold more value within your country.
Why trust suba?

ISO 3166-1 is a standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that defines codes for the names of countries. ISO 3166-1 two-letter country codes are the most widely used, most prominently for the Internet's country code top-level domains.
The three-letter country codes allow a better visual association between the codes and the country names than the two-letter codes.
