Frequently asked questions about delegation.dot
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for a checkout product manager?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
Can a licensee rather than the trademark owner claim delegation.dot?
Priority on delegation.dot flows from the validated TMCH mark, so the claim is normally made by the SMD holder of record for the delegation.dot mark. A licensee would need the appropriate authority and a usable SMD to act. Confirm who controls the SMD before claiming delegation.dot. Begin registration at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use .PAY for redirects to my existing checkout for a retail brand?
Yes, you can use a .PAY domain as a clean branded entry point or redirect to an existing checkout, but implement redirects, SSL and tracking carefully. First secure or pre-order the label through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Will delegation.dot work as a tip jar for a food truck?
A food truck can post delegation.dot so customers pay and tip from their phones without cash. The short payment-native name is easy to read off a window sticker. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
As a retail brand, can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
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.
