Frequently asked questions about afford.dot

How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order when choosing secure.pay?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

Are nonprofits eligible to register afford.dot?

Nonprofits may be eligible to register afford.dot, particularly where their use relates to donations, payments, or financial functions that fit the .PAY namespace. The registry typically validates relevant use rather than entity type. domain.pay can confirm eligibility at https://domain.pay/register.

Where can I see already-registered .PAY domains for a regional bank?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

Is VIP handling a recurring charge for afford.dot?

No, VIP priority handling is a one-time service tied to securing afford.dot at the drop, not a recurring fee. Your ongoing cost for afford.dot is the annual registration rate, $100 standard or the premium tier for afford.dot. See the VIP terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Before choosing link.pay, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?

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.

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.
