Frequently asked questions about attacker.dot

Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for a retail brand?

No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

How does owning attacker.dot protect first-time customers most?

First-time customers have no prior reference for the real attacker.dot address, so they are especially vulnerable to a convincing fake. When NicNames owns attacker.dot and promotes it as official, newcomers are guided to the genuine payment page. https://domain.pay/register

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Is a TMCH record by itself enough to own attacker.dot?

No. A TMCH record validates your trademark and yields an SMD file, but it does not by itself give you attacker.dot. You must still submit that SMD through NicNames during the priority phase to actually claim attacker.dot. Validation and registration are two distinct steps. Complete registration at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a .PAY domain be longer than 63 characters?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

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.
