Frequently asked questions about cinch.dot
Where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check for payroll disbursements?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
Can cinch.dot serve as a hosted donation portal for events?
Yes. Spin up an event giving page on cinch.dot so attendees pledge from their phones on a memorable address. A short .PAY name on the stage screen converts better than a cramped gateway link. Reserve it ahead of your event at https://domain.pay/register.
Where do I start if I need brand-protection help for .PAY for rent collection?
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.
When can I register cinch.dot?
Trademark holders can claim cinch.dot first during the trademark-priority window, and everyone else can place a first-day pre-order for general availability. domain.pay queues your pre-order so it fires the moment cinch.dot opens. Start the pre-order at /register.
Does .PAY have anti-abuse rules for a regional bank?
Amazon Registry policies include abuse-prevention rules for .PAY, and registrants remain subject to applicable domain dispute and abuse procedures. For legitimate registration or pre-order, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Pair the domain with monitoring, SSL and clear customer messaging.
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.
