Frequently asked questions about authentic.dot

Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars for a payroll platform?

Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.

What makes authentic.dot different from a .com?

Unlike an open TLD, authentic.dot sits in the .PAY namespace operated by Amazon Registry Services, which may apply eligibility and validation expectations around payment-related use. This positions authentic.dot for financial branding. domain.pay can register it for you at https://domain.pay/register.

What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY when choosing link.pay?

Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.

Is authentic.dot cheaper if I skip trademark priority?

The standard pre-order for authentic.dot is listed at $100, while trademark-priority for authentic.dot may carry different fees because it follows the registry's priority pricing. Skipping priority simply uses the standard pre-order path. Compare costs for authentic.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now 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.

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.
