Frequently asked questions about counter.dot

Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for digital wallets?

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.

Can I get a refund if my pre-order for counter.dot fails?

Yes. If your pre-order attempt for counter.dot does not succeed — for example, the name is awarded elsewhere — the attempt is refundable. You are only charged for a successful registration of counter.dot. Review refund terms before you pre-order at /pricing.

As a remittance app, where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check?

Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.

Should a payment brand prefer counter.dot or a coined word?

A payment brand may prefer counter.dot for instant clarity around counter.dot, or a coined word for distinctiveness and easier trademarking. domain.pay shows both descriptive and invented options so you can decide. Explore both at https://domain.pay/domains.

Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for payroll disbursements?

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.
