Frequently asked questions about baf.dot

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for digital wallets?

.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.

What canonical URL should I set for pages on baf.dot?

Each page on baf.dot should declare a self-referencing canonical link to its preferred URL, using a single consistent scheme, host, and trailing-slash style. This prevents duplicate-content confusion across www, non-www, and parameter variants of baf.dot. Keep canonicals absolute and HTTPS.

For mobile money, what date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark?

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.

How do I choose between baf.dot and a coined alternative for trademarks?

For trademark strength, a coined alternative may protect more easily than the descriptive baf.dot, though baf.dot reads clearer for baf.dot. domain.pay shows both so you can weigh protectability against clarity. Note that mark holders can claim TMCH SMD priority. Compare at https://domain.pay/domains.

What .PAY domain style is best for trust and conversion for digital wallets?

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.

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.
