Frequently asked questions about blockers.dot
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for online 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.
How do I avoid losing blockers.dot to a different trademark holder?
To reduce the risk of losing blockers.dot, record your blockers.dot mark in the TMCH and submit your SMD as soon as the priority phase opens. If another validated holder also claims blockers.dot, the registry's rules decide, so acting promptly matters. Prepare your SMD-backed claim at https://domain.pay/register.
What happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY for a retail brand?
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.
Why would blockers.dot be unavailable even during general availability?
blockers.dot may stay unavailable during general availability if the registry has reserved or already allocated blockers.dot, or designated it premium with different terms. The domain.pay flow flags any such status for blockers.dot. Check the current status of blockers.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments?
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.
