Frequently asked questions about chn.dot

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for BNPL checkout?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Does my trademark have to exactly match the label in chn.dot?

For trademark priority, the validated mark in your SMD must correspond to the chn.dot string in chn.dot under TMCH matching rules. Close-but-different strings generally do not qualify for priority on chn.dot. If the match is exact, your SMD unlocks the priority claim. Check your eligibility and register at https://domain.pay/register.

Where do I start if I need brand-protection help for .PAY for card processing?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

Can I update my SMD if my trademark details change before claiming chn.dot?

If your trademark details change, you update the underlying TMCH record and re-export a fresh SMD before claiming chn.dot, so the file reflects the current validated mark. Submitting an outdated SMD risks rejection for chn.dot. Keep the record and file aligned, then register at https://domain.pay/register.

How should I check premium status before choosing a .PAY name for an insurance billing portal?

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.

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.
