Frequently asked questions about check.dot

Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now when choosing tap.pay?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

Can trademark holders skip the queue for check.dot?

Trademark holders do not skip the queue so much as use a separate, earlier phase: sunrise. With a TMCH-validated mark and SMD file, you can register check.dot before general availability even opens. domain.pay handles the submission, explained at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a donation platform use .PAY for a branded payment page?

Yes. A donation platform can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

When do I get charged for check.dot?

You authorize payment when you place the pre-order for check.dot, and the charge is finalized once the registration succeeds. If the check.dot pre-order fails, the attempt is refundable under our stated policy. See timing details at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for mobile money?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
