Frequently asked questions about ankor.dot

What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea for online checkout?

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 the $100 pre-order for ankor.dot a one-time protection cost?

The $100 figure is the standard pre-order to secure ankor.dot, with failed attempts refundable; ongoing protection then depends on keeping the registration renewed. Treat the pre-order as the entry step to owning the ankor.dot name. See details at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for a mobile wallet team?

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.

Does NicNames accept SMD files from any TMCH-accredited provider for ankor.dot?

NicNames accepts the standard SMD file issued through the Trademark Clearinghouse, regardless of which accredited agent helped you record the mark, for claiming ankor.dot. What matters is a valid, matching SMD for the ankor.dot string. The issuing path does not change acceptance for ankor.dot. Upload yours at https://domain.pay/register.

Where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check for a checkout product manager?

Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.

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.
