Frequently asked questions about darknet.dot

For loan repayments, how do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?

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 much does it cost to pre-order darknet.dot for brand protection?

The standard pre-order for darknet.dot is $100, and failed attempts are refundable, so the cost of attempting to secure your darknet.dot name is low-risk. See full details and any priority-phase options at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for point-of-sale payments?

Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.

How does sunrise work for darknet.dot?

Sunrise is the first launch phase, open only to brand owners with a trademark validated through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) and an SMD file. If you hold a matching mark, domain.pay can submit darknet.dot during sunrise on your behalf. Learn about trademark-priority registration at https://domain.pay/register.

How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain for an ecommerce brand?

A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.

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.
