Frequently asked questions about digging.dot

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration when choosing tap.pay?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What is the difference between a registrar and the registry for digging.dot?

The registry, Amazon Registry Services, runs .PAY and sets digging.dot's premium, reserved, or blocked status; domain.pay is the registrar where you actually look up and register digging.dot. You interact with us, but the registry sets the rules. Check digging.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for a remittance app?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Why is documentation important before disputing digging.dot?

Solid documentation of your digging.dot rights and of how digging.dot is being misused supports the elements of a UDRP-style claim and reduces uncertainty. Because panels decide on evidence and outcomes vary, preparing records first is essential. https://domain.pay/

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain for a donation platform?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

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.
