Frequently asked questions about apres.dot

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP when choosing tap.pay?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

Is apres.dot subject to a Sunrise period?

During a registry Sunrise period, trademark owners with a TMCH SMD file get first access to names like apres.dot. Whether apres.dot is currently in Sunrise depends on the .PAY launch schedule set by Amazon Registry Services. Check the current phase for apres.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain for digital wallets?

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.

Does the TMCH actually help me secure apres.dot?

The Trademark Clearinghouse verifies your rights in the apres.dot mark and issues an SMD file you can use to claim apres.dot during priority phases and to receive notices if others try to register it. It does not auto-register apres.dot for you, but it gives verified holders a real head start. https://domain.pay/pricing

Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing merchant.pay?

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.

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.
