We really, really like the Open Internet

Everything we build, make and do is on the Internet but that’s not the only reason we think the Internet is important.

Our Story

Tucows started in 1993 by changing not just how people connected to the Internet but also who could get online.

We continue to push for change at every level of the Internet. Collectively, we manage tens of millions of domain names from .com to .xyz and work with tens of thousands of resellers (OpenSRS, Enom). We eliminate all the ugliness from buying and owning your domain and email (Hover).

We changed what people expect from mobile phone service (Ting Mobile). We’re changing the way entire cities connect to and think about the Internet as we build and light true fiber to the premises networks across North America (Ting Internet).

We’re a collection of scrappy, stable, little, big brands. Together, we’re an overnight success story 29 years in the making and we’re a long way from finished.

Our beliefs

The Internet

The Open Internet is an agent for positive change. It belongs to everyone and no one. We will help it to resist all attempts at ownership.

Innovation

We see and celebrate innovation and creativity in every employee, customer and partner we work with. We try stuff and we capitalize.

Simplicity

We’re building things for people, not for machines. We choose simplicity over complexity every time.

We > Me

We are a mix of people working together to solve problems big and small. Together, we’re stronger, smarter and better. We beats me.

"Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working on projects across Tucows, from Domains, Ting, and TCX, to our Wavelo business unit, and I’ve loved every minute! Tucows has always given me the autonomy, opportunity, and space to try new things. My colleagues have been incredibly supportive throughout, especially when I transitioned from Project to Product Management. They welcomed me with open arms and provided the tools and knowledge I needed to thrive.

We have an awesome team of passionate individuals who genuinely care about making the internet better. Whether it’s helping businesses establish their presence online through Domains, connecting families via Ting’s internet services, supporting internal teams through TCX, or powering telecoms with innovative software at Wavelo, we genuinely care about making the internet better.

There’s something incredibly fulfilling about seeing the tangible impact of our work, like sipping coffee at a local shop using Ting internet, knowing Wavelo software is behind it all. There’s just so much to be proud of here."
