ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Are nonprofits able to use TMCH priority for adhoc.dot?

Any entity, including a nonprofit, that holds a validated TMCH trademark for the adhoc.dot string can use an SMD to claim adhoc.dot under priority. The path depends on the mark, not the organisation type. Validate your mark first, then claim adhoc.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

As an ecommerce brand, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

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.
