Frequently asked questions about dqc.dot

During the .PAY launch, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?

.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.

When can I register dqc.dot on the first day?

First-day registration follows the registry's launch schedule set by Amazon Registry Services; domain.pay queues your first-day pre-order for dqc.dot so it's submitted as soon as the window opens. We don't set the date — the registry does. Queue dqc.dot now at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for online checkout?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

Does an unregistered dqc.dot create legal exposure for my customers?

If dqc.dot is left open, an impersonator can capture customers who trust the dqc.dot name for payments, leading to fraud losses and reputational harm to NicNames. While you are not liable for a scammer's actions, the customer harm is real. Closing that gap means registering dqc.dot. https://domain.pay/register

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium for online checkout?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

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.
