Frequently asked questions about aqi.dot

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for online checkout?

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.

How does trademark priority work when registering aqi.dot?

If aqi.dot matches a trademark you hold, you can claim priority through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) using a Signed Mark Data (SMD) file. Validated marks get first access to aqi.dot during the registry's sunrise phase. Have your SMD ready before pre-ordering aqi.dot.

When is broader .PAY public registration expected for fraud prevention?

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.

What is a redemption period and how does it affect aqi.dot?

After aqi.dot expires and the grace period ends, it enters a redemption period where only the registrant can restore it, typically for a higher fee than a normal renewal. If redemption lapses, aqi.dot is deleted and re-released. Renewing aqi.dot on time avoids these costs entirely.

How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration for a payroll platform?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

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.
