Frequently asked questions about alums.dot

For fraud prevention, how do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order?

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.

Can trademark holders skip the queue for alums.dot?

Trademark holders do not skip the queue so much as use a separate, earlier phase: sunrise. With a TMCH-validated mark and SMD file, you can register alums.dot before general availability even opens. domain.pay handles the submission, explained at https://domain.pay/register.

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for digital wallets?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What are the launch phases for alums.dot?

Like every new gTLD, the .PAY namespace rolls out in phases: a sunrise period reserved for verified trademark holders, followed by general availability when anyone can register. To secure alums.dot, domain.pay lets you place a pre-order now so your request is queued for the right phase. See the timeline and start at https://domain.pay/register.

For fraud prevention, could I use .PAY for a wallet or payment app?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

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.
