Frequently asked questions about contact.dot
Should an ecommerce brand protect its exact brand in .PAY for invoice 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.
Can I claim contact.dot if my trademark is jointly owned?
A jointly owned trademark can be recorded in the TMCH, and the resulting SMD can support a priority claim on contact.dot where the contact.dot string matches. The co-owners should agree on who submits the SMD and holds contact.dot. Sort the ownership arrangement, then register contact.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for loan repayments?
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.
What proof do I need for trademark-priority pricing on contact.dot?
For trademark-priority handling of contact.dot you must supply a valid TMCH SMD (Signed Mark Data) file matching contact.dot, issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse. Without it, you proceed under standard general-availability pricing for contact.dot. Begin the priority flow at https://domain.pay/register.
Are IDN .PAY domains allowed for mobile money?
IDN .PAY names may be possible only in supported scripts and must meet registry rules. Use domain.pay to check the exact label and punycode-style status before planning a launch: https://domain.pay/register. Availability, premium and policy restrictions still apply.
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.
