Frequently asked questions about 3mo.dot
Why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay for a payroll platform?
A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.
Can I get help validating my mark before I register 3mo.dot?
Mark validation happens at the Trademark Clearinghouse, which reviews your evidence before issuing the SMD you need for 3mo.dot. NicNames handles the registration step once your SMD is in hand. Complete TMCH validation first, then bring the SMD to claim 3mo.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for a bank or credit union?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Is there a priority window for trademark holders on 3mo.dot?
Yes, that window is sunrise: a priority phase where TMCH-validated trademark owners can register 3mo.dot before general availability. domain.pay offers trademark-priority registration for 3mo.dot during this window. Learn more at https://domain.pay/register.
As a travel booking brand, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
Availability is checked live and re-verified before payment. Pre-orders are first-day registration attempts — registration is not guaranteed; 100% credit toward another domain (or 80% cash refund) if unsuccessful.
