Frequently asked questions about beacons.dot

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for an ecommerce brand?

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.

How do I redirect beacons.dot to another website?

You can forward beacons.dot with a registrar-level URL redirect, or host a small server that issues a 301 to your target. A 301 is permanent and passes the most SEO signal, which is ideal if beacons.dot should point to your main site. Configure forwarding for beacons.dot from /domains.

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for payroll disbursements?

An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.

What makes beacons.dot a reserved name rather than available?

beacons.dot is reserved when Amazon Registry Services has placed beacons.dot on its withheld list under naming policy, regardless of whether anyone wants it. That's distinct from being taken or premium. Registry status can change, so re-check beacons.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for rent collection?

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.

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.
