Frequently asked questions about dac.dot

For digital wallets, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?

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.

Which costs more upfront for dac.dot: standard or VIP?

VIP costs more upfront for dac.dot because it adds a one-time priority handling fee on top of the registration rate, whether that rate is the $100 standard or a premium dac.dot fee. Standard checkout omits the VIP line. Compare both for dac.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When is broader .PAY public registration expected for an event ticketing business?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

How does domain.pay's pre-order queue work for dac.dot?

domain.pay accepts your pre-order for dac.dot, holds it in queue, and submits it to the registry when dac.dot's phase opens; if it cannot be fulfilled, it is refundable per policy. The queue rewards early action. Join it at https://domain.pay/register.

When is the .PAY Sunrise period?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: 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.
