Frequently asked questions about bongs.dot
As a mobile wallet team, 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.
Is it worth protecting bongs.dot if my brand is mostly local?
Yes. Local brands still take payments, and a fraudster impersonating your bongs.dot name can defraud your nearby customers just as easily. Because the cost is a $100 refundable pre-order, even a regional NicNames benefits from owning bongs.dot. https://domain.pay/register
