Frequently asked questions about cardinals.dot

For BNPL checkout, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for crypto payments?

Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.

Should I consult a lawyer before registering cardinals.dot?

What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY for a brand-protection manager?
