Frequently asked questions about basho.dot
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for loan repayments for a retail brand?
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.
Is basho.dot useful even if I already have a payment page?
Yes. You can keep your existing payment page and point basho.dot at it as a cleaner, more shareable front door for basho.dot. Customers get a short address while nothing about your processor changes. Add basho.dot to your stack via /register.
For payroll disbursements, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Is basho.dot guaranteed if I'm the only pre-order?
Being the sole pre-order improves your odds for basho.dot, but the registry's launch rules and basho.dot's classification by Amazon Registry Services still govern allocation, so it's not guaranteed. A failed attempt is refundable per policy. Pre-order basho.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order for mobile money?
domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.
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.
