Frequently asked questions about costs.dot

What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY for BNPL checkout?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

Will a contested costs.dot affect my pre-order timing?

If costs.dot is contested by multiple applicants at general availability, your first-day pre-order still queues an attempt the moment it opens, and a failed attempt is refundable per policy. Early queuing improves your odds against later applicants. domain.pay manages the timing; see https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration for card processing?

.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.

Will costs.dot stay $100 forever?

The $100 standard rate for costs.dot is the current listed price, but Amazon Registry Services can adjust standard or premium tiers over time, which would affect future renewals of costs.dot. We always show the live rate before you commit. Check today's price for costs.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can an ecommerce brand get one for fraud prevention?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. An ecommerce brand can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.

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.
