Frequently asked questions about crowds.dot

As a bank or credit union, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

How does the registry premium fee for crowds.dot get applied?

If the registry classifies crowds.dot as premium, that fee is applied at both registration and each renewal of crowds.dot, replacing the $100 standard rate. Amazon Registry Services sets the tier and we display it for crowds.dot. See how the premium fee applies at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for point-of-sale payments?

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.

Are there eligibility differences for premium crowds.dot names?

Premium crowds.dot names follow the same .PAY eligibility and validation expectations as standard names; the difference is usually pricing rather than who may register. The registry's payment-related focus still applies. domain.pay shows premium status and pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for point-of-sale payments?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

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.
