Frequently asked questions about brainchild.dot

Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 when choosing tap.pay?

A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.

Can a trademark holder claim brainchild.dot before others?

Yes — with a valid TMCH SMD file proving a trademark on brainchild.dot, you can register brainchild.dot during the registry's trademark-priority phase before standard applicants. domain.pay offers this priority path. Begin the trademark claim for brainchild.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for online checkout?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

How much should I budget for brainchild.dot over five years?

For five years of brainchild.dot at the $100 standard rate, budget roughly $500 plus any taxes, assuming brainchild.dot stays standard. If the registry classifies brainchild.dot as premium, multiply the higher premium fee by five instead. Confirm the per-year cost for brainchild.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark when choosing tap.pay?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

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.
