Frequently asked questions about costas.dot
How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for tax payments?
.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.
Is costas.dot restricted to payment companies only?
costas.dot is part of a TLD oriented toward payments, but the .PAY registry does not necessarily limit registration strictly to payment companies. Validation expectations typically center on relevant, good-faith financial or payment use. domain.pay can confirm whether your case fits at https://domain.pay/register.
For payroll disbursements, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.
What is the safest way to secure costas.dot as a trademark owner?
As a trademark owner, the safest path to costas.dot is to record your costas.dot mark in the TMCH, obtain a valid SMD, and submit it through NicNames as soon as the priority phase opens. This gives costas.dot the validated-rights advantage over public registrations. Begin securing costas.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for online checkout for a checkout product manager?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
