Frequently asked questions about acceptance.dot
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for point-of-sale payments?
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.
Does acceptance.dot go through both sunrise and general availability?
The .PAY namespace runs both phases, and acceptance.dot is registrable in sunrise (if you hold a trademark) or in general availability (if you do not). You only participate in the phase that applies to you. domain.pay routes acceptance.dot accordingly at https://domain.pay/register.
Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for cross-border payments?
.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.
What happens to acceptance.dot if I stop using it for payments?
If your use of acceptance.dot drifts away from payment-related purposes, it generally remains registered through renewal, though the .PAY registry's expectations are themed around payments. Policies can evolve, so staying aligned is wise. domain.pay can advise on your situation at https://domain.pay/register.
What .PAY name should an event ticketing business consider?
travel.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
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.
