Frequently asked questions about backun.dot

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for payroll disbursements?

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.

Can backun.dot be both premium and VIP-handled?

Yes. A premium-classified backun.dot can still use VIP priority handling: the registry sets the premium fee for backun.dot while VIP only speeds your request in our queue. The two are independent charges on backun.dot. See both at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Before choosing link.pay, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

What if someone else pre-orders backun.dot before my priority claim?

A standard pre-order does not outrank trademark priority, so if you hold a valid SMD for the backun.dot mark, your priority claim on backun.dot is processed ahead of that pre-order. The pre-order is refundable per policy if it cannot be fulfilled. Validated rights come first for backun.dot. Claim yours at https://domain.pay/register.

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for BNPL checkout?

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.

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.
