Frequently asked questions about buddy.dot
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.
Where can I read the full terms before registering buddy.dot?
The full pre-order, priority, and refund terms that govern buddy.dot are presented during the domain.pay flow, including the refundable-on-failure policy for buddy.dot. Review them before you commit to buddy.dot. Start and read the terms at https://domain.pay/register.
Where should I check whether a .PAY name fits my crypto payments project?
For crypto payments, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
What is the total cost to pre-order buddy.dot with VIP?
The total for buddy.dot with VIP equals the registration rate, $100 standard or the premium buddy.dot fee, plus the one-time VIP priority handling charge and any taxes shown at checkout. Each line is itemized before you confirm buddy.dot. See the running total at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for mobile money for a checkout product manager?
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.
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.
