Frequently asked questions about detective.dot

Can Amazon Registry reserve or block some .PAY names for crypto payments?

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.

When does the standard pre-order fee for detective.dot apply?

The standard pre-order fee, listed at $100 through domain.pay, applies when you queue a first-day attempt for detective.dot. If that attempt fails, the fee is refundable per policy. Review when fees apply at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark for a crypto or DeFi product?

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 does trademark-priority registration work for detective.dot?

Trademark-priority registration lets the verified owner of a mark matching detective.dot claim detective.dot during the registry's priority window, ahead of standard pre-orders. It requires a valid TMCH SMD file proving your trademark. Begin the priority path for detective.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for payroll disbursements?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
