Frequently asked questions about catkin.dot
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments for a travel booking brand?
Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.
Is trademark priority on catkin.dot guaranteed if my SMD is valid?
A valid SMD makes your claim on catkin.dot eligible for trademark priority, but if other validated holders of the catkin.dot mark also claim it, the registry's published rules decide the outcome. A valid SMD is necessary, not always a sole guarantee. Submit your SMD-backed claim at https://domain.pay/register.
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for fraud prevention?
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.
How does catkin.dot support a Buy Now Pay Later offer?
A BNPL flow asks customers to commit to payments, so hosting it on catkin.dot frames the decision around paying. The clear .PAY address can make installment sign-ups feel more legitimate. Reserve the name at https://domain.pay/register.
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments when choosing link.pay?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: 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.
