Frequently asked questions about arch.dot

For mobile money, can domain.pay submit my .PAY registration on opening day?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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

After arch.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, arch.dot is deleted and re-released. Renewing arch.dot on time avoids these costs entirely.

For BNPL checkout, could I use .PAY for a wallet or payment app?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

Where do I manage the DNS settings for arch.dot?

You manage nameservers and DNS records for arch.dot from your account's domain dashboard. From there you can edit A, CNAME, MX, and TXT records and toggle auto-renew for arch.dot. Open the dashboard at /domains to make changes.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for fraud prevention?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

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.
