Frequently asked questions about dashes.dot

Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for a travel booking brand?

A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.

Is trademark-priority registration available for dashes.dot now?

Trademark-priority registration for dashes.dot is available while the registry's priority window for .PAY is open and you hold a TMCH SMD file matching dashes.dot. The domain.pay flow shows whether priority is currently active for dashes.dot. Check and start at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a fintech founder use .PAY for a branded payment page for mobile money?

Yes. A fintech founder can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

What is a redemption period and how does it affect dashes.dot?

After dashes.dot expires and the grace period ends, it enters a redemption period where only the registrant can restore it, typically for a higher fee than a normal renewal. If redemption lapses, dashes.dot is deleted and re-released. Renewing dashes.dot on time avoids these costs entirely.

For point-of-sale payments, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?

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.

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.
