Frequently asked questions about ekc.dot

For online checkout, how do I register donate.pay if it matches my trademark?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

Should I pre-order ekc.dot now or wait for general availability?

Pre-ordering ekc.dot now queues your attempt for the first day of general availability, which matters if others want the ekc.dot name. Waiting risks someone else registering it first. A failed pre-order is refundable per policy, so review terms on /pricing.

For BNPL checkout, how do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

Can two trademark holders both claim ekc.dot during priority?

More than one party may hold a valid TMCH mark for the ekc.dot string, so multiple SMD-backed claims on ekc.dot can arrive during the priority phase. When that happens, the registry resolves competing claims under its published rules rather than first-come alone. Each claimant still needs a valid SMD to be in contention. Start your claim at https://domain.pay/register.

What are good .PAY domain ideas for fraud prevention?

For fraud prevention, brainstorm short, action-oriented .PAY labels and then verify them in the domain.pay catalog/search: https://domain.pay/domains. Good candidates are clear, memorable and tied to payment actions like checkout, billing, wallet funding, payouts or invoices.

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.
