Frequently asked questions about appl.dot
What happens to my money if the .PAY registration attempt fails when choosing donate.pay?
domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.
How can NicNames prove ownership intent over appl.dot early?
Recording the appl.dot mark in the TMCH and obtaining an SMD file documents your rights and lets you claim appl.dot during priority phases. Pre-ordering appl.dot at $100, with refunds on failed attempts, further demonstrates and secures your intent to own it. https://domain.pay/register
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for loan repayments?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Will I get refunded if my pre-order for appl.dot fails?
Yes. If your pre-order for appl.dot does not succeed, the standard $100 pre-order attempt is refundable, so a failed attempt does not cost you. That makes it safe to pre-order appl.dot and a backup in parallel. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now when choosing loans.pay?
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.
