Frequently asked questions about cardy.dot

Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for payroll disbursements?

After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.

What refund do I get if cardy.dot goes to a trademark holder?

If a trademark holder secures cardy.dot during the priority phase and your general-availability pre-order cannot be fulfilled, that failed attempt is refundable under our stated policy. Trademark priority requires a TMCH SMD file. Read how this works for cardy.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for payroll disbursements?

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.

Why use domain.pay instead of waiting for cardy.dot?

Waiting to register cardy.dot risks losing it to someone who pre-ordered or to a trademark holder in sunrise. domain.pay queues your cardy.dot request in advance and submits it at the optimal moment, refunding failed attempts per policy. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for tax payments?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

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.
