Frequently asked questions about durham.dot
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for online checkout?
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 a sunrise period and does it apply to durham.dot?
A sunrise period is the opening launch phase reserved for trademark owners, letting them claim names like durham.dot before the public. It applies to durham.dot only if you hold a TMCH-validated mark matching the label. Otherwise, general availability is your phase. Details at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I see already-registered .PAY domains for online checkout?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
Does a pending trademark application qualify for an SMD to claim durham.dot?
The Trademark Clearinghouse generally validates registered marks, not mere pending applications, so a pending filing usually cannot produce an SMD to claim durham.dot. You need a validated TMCH record for the durham.dot mark first. If your application matures and is validated, you can then pursue priority on durham.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I see already-registered .PAY domains for point-of-sale payments?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
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.
