Frequently asked questions about apol.dot

Is .PAY already open to everyone for a remittance app?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Will my SMD file expire before I can register apol.dot?

An SMD file is tied to your active TMCH record and stops being valid if your trademark record lapses or is revoked. To claim apol.dot you need a current, unexpired SMD at the moment of submission. Keep your TMCH record renewed so your right to apol.dot stays enforceable. Register while valid at https://domain.pay/register.

What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for online checkout?

Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.

Will I get a refund if my apol.dot pre-order fails?

Yes. If domain.pay cannot secure apol.dot during its launch phase, the failed attempt is refundable per the published policy. You only keep what you actually register. Review pricing and refund terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain for fraud prevention?

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.

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.
