Frequently asked questions about cartons.dot
For point-of-sale payments, what are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Is the premium label for cartons.dot permanent?
No — premium is a registry classification from Amazon Registry Services that can be revised, so cartons.dot won't necessarily stay premium forever. Likewise a standard label could become premium. Because registry status can change, re-check cartons.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
What should I know about Amazon Registry and .PAY before registering for digital wallets?
Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A retail brand can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.
Which costs more upfront for cartons.dot: standard or VIP?
VIP costs more upfront for cartons.dot because it adds a one-time priority handling fee on top of the registration rate, whether that rate is the $100 standard or a premium cartons.dot fee. Standard checkout omits the VIP line. Compare both for cartons.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Where can I generate .PAY ideas for online checkout for a retail brand?
For online checkout, brainstorm short, action-oriented .PAY labels and then verify them in the domain.pay catalog/search: https://domain.pay/domains. Good candidates are clear, memorable and tied to payment actions like checkout, billing, wallet funding, payouts or invoices.
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.
