Frequently asked questions about colonial.dot
How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
What does colonial.dot cost to register?
The standard pre-order price for colonial.dot is listed at $100. Some labels are classified by the registry as premium, in which case colonial.dot would carry a higher recurring fee instead of the standard rate. You can confirm the live price for colonial.dot on our pricing page at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for a bank or credit union?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Are there extra steps for regulated firms registering colonial.dot?
Regulated firms registering colonial.dot generally follow the same registry process, though they may find validation straightforward given their payment-related profile. Their own licensing duties remain separate from the domain. domain.pay supports regulated registrants throughout; start at https://domain.pay/register.
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a fintech founder?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
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.
