Frequently asked questions about chopsticks.dot

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for a travel booking brand?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

Why does chopsticks.dot show available now but not yesterday?

Statuses shift: Amazon Registry Services may have released chopsticks.dot from reserved, or a prior registration on chopsticks.dot lapsed. That's why availability isn't static. Since registry status can change, re-check chopsticks.dot at https://domain.pay/domains before relying on the result.

For crypto payments, is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing?

.PAY can work for subscription billing, account payment, renewal and failed-payment recovery flows. Search brandable options on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. A clear .PAY label can reduce confusion when customers need to update payment details.

How do I migrate an existing site onto chopsticks.dot without downtime?

Stand up the new site on chopsticks.dot at a low TTL, validate it on a staging hostname, then flip DNS and 301 every old URL to its match on chopsticks.dot. Submit a change of address in Search Console and keep the old certificate valid through the cutover. Monitor chopsticks.dot for crawl errors afterward.

Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for a fintech founder?

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.

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.
