Frequently asked questions about coating.dot
When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Why is impersonation on coating.dot harder for customers to detect?
Because .PAY implies a payment purpose, customers tend to assume any coating.dot address under it is legitimate, lowering their guard. That assumption is exactly why an unprotected coating.dot is dangerous and why NicNames should own it. https://domain.pay/register
What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for fraud prevention?
Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.
Why should my brand secure coating.dot before anyone else does?
Securing coating.dot early prevents a third party from registering your brand on a payment-purpose TLD where impersonation carries extra risk. .PAY is operated by Amazon Registry Services, and once a name is taken you may be left pursuing a dispute instead of simply owning it. Pre-order coating.dot to keep control in your hands. https://domain.pay/register
For point-of-sale payments, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
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.
