Frequently asked questions about canis.dot

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Where do I start the registration process for canis.dot?

Start the registration process for canis.dot at https://domain.pay/register, where you enter canis.dot, confirm availability, and pick trademark-priority or standard pre-order. The flow tells you exactly which step applies to canis.dot and what documents, if any, you need.

For fraud prevention, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

How do I choose between canis.dot and a coined alternative for trademarks?

For trademark strength, a coined alternative may protect more easily than the descriptive canis.dot, though canis.dot reads clearer for canis.dot. domain.pay shows both so you can weigh protectability against clarity. Note that mark holders can claim TMCH SMD priority. Compare at https://domain.pay/domains.

For payroll disbursements, when is the .PAY Sunrise period?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
