Frequently asked questions about dct.dot

What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for mobile money?

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 dct.dot compare to using a /pay path on a .com site?

With dct.dot the payment intent lives in the domain itself, while a /pay path hangs off a longer .com URL that may be hard to recall. dct.dot is easier to say aloud, print, or put on a QR code. Both can route to the same processor, but dct.dot is the cleaner address.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for payroll disbursements?

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.

Is there a priority window for trademark holders on dct.dot?

Yes, that window is sunrise: a priority phase where TMCH-validated trademark owners can register dct.dot before general availability. domain.pay offers trademark-priority registration for dct.dot during this window. Learn more at https://domain.pay/register.

As a donation platform, what if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

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.
