Frequently asked questions about eights.dot

What .PAY name should a payroll platform consider for a payroll platform?

settle.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

Why use domain.pay instead of waiting for eights.dot?

Waiting to register eights.dot risks losing it to someone who pre-ordered or to a trademark holder in sunrise. domain.pay queues your eights.dot request in advance and submits it at the optimal moment, refunding failed attempts per policy. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for a regional bank?

No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

How do I renew my TMCH record so I keep priority for eights.dot?

You renew your TMCH record through the Trademark Clearinghouse before it lapses; an active record is what keeps your SMD valid for claiming eights.dot. If the record expires, the SMD stops working and your priority on eights.dot cannot be honoured. Keep it current, then register at https://domain.pay/register.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for a remittance app?

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.
