Frequently asked questions about diro.dot

For point-of-sale payments, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?

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.

Who is eligible for VIP priority on a premium diro.dot?

Any registered customer can request VIP priority handling for diro.dot, including when the registry has classified diro.dot as premium, since VIP only governs queue speed and not the registry fee. Eligibility does not depend on the price tier of diro.dot. Request VIP at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can Amazon Registry reserve or block some .PAY names for fraud prevention?

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.

What if someone else pre-orders diro.dot before my priority claim?

A standard pre-order does not outrank trademark priority, so if you hold a valid SMD for the diro.dot mark, your priority claim on diro.dot is processed ahead of that pre-order. The pre-order is refundable per policy if it cannot be fulfilled. Validated rights come first for diro.dot. Claim yours at https://domain.pay/register.

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window when choosing donate.pay?

An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.

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.
