Frequently asked questions about chk.dot

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium for online checkout?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

Is the premium label for chk.dot permanent?

No — premium is a registry classification from Amazon Registry Services that can be revised, so chk.dot won't necessarily stay premium forever. Likewise a standard label could become premium. Because registry status can change, re-check chk.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How do I register a .PAY domain as a startup for a brand-protection manager?

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.

Will my application for chk.dot be validated?

Yes, the .PAY registry operated by Amazon Registry Services may apply validation to chk.dot to confirm the registration aligns with payment-related expectations. domain.pay handles submission and passes any validation requests back to you. Start your application at https://domain.pay/register.

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for payroll disbursements?

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.
