Frequently asked questions about bics.dot
As a bank or credit union, when does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Can a licensee rather than the trademark owner claim bics.dot?
Priority on bics.dot flows from the validated TMCH mark, so the claim is normally made by the SMD holder of record for the bics.dot mark. A licensee would need the appropriate authority and a usable SMD to act. Confirm who controls the SMD before claiming bics.dot. Begin registration at https://domain.pay/register.
For fraud prevention, how do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
How does the trademark-priority window for bics.dot work?
During the trademark-priority window, holders of the bics.dot trademark can register bics.dot ahead of the general public by submitting a TMCH SMD file. This protects brands from losing their name. domain.pay handles the SMD path for bics.dot at /register.
How do I register a .PAY domain as a startup when choosing payroll.pay?
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.
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.
