Frequently asked questions about courthouse.dot

Why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay for fraud prevention?

A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.

Will switching from a .com to courthouse.dot cost me SEO traffic?

A move to courthouse.dot only risks traffic if it's done without proper 301 redirects from every old URL to its match on courthouse.dot. With correct redirects, a canonical update, and a Search Console change-of-address, rankings transfer over time. Plan the migration to courthouse.dot carefully and monitor results.

Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark?

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.

Is courthouse.dot a premium name and what does that imply?

If courthouse.dot is premium, the registry has assigned courthouse.dot a higher wholesale price, so you can register it but at that special rate shown at checkout — not the standard fee. Premium status comes from Amazon Registry Services and can change. Confirm whether courthouse.dot is premium at https://domain.pay/domains.

Could a lookalike .PAY domain harm customer trust for rent collection?

.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.

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.
