Frequently asked questions about amicus.dot
As a crypto or DeFi product, when should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Should I use amicus.dot for a microsite or my main site?
Both work. A short, brandable name like amicus.dot can anchor your main site, or serve a focused campaign microsite that 301s to your hub later. The choice is strategic, not technical — search engines index amicus.dot the same either way. Decide based on your brand plan.
Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for fraud prevention?
A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.
Where do premium and reserved classifications come from for amicus.dot?
They come from the .PAY registry operator, Amazon Registry Services, which maintains the policy lists that mark amicus.dot as premium, reserved, or blocked. domain.pay reflects those lists for amicus.dot at lookup time. Since they can be updated, re-check amicus.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.
Should an ecommerce brand protect its exact brand in .PAY?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
