Frequently asked questions about ekka.dot

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for fraud prevention?

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.

Are reserved and premium statuses ever applied to ekka.dot at the same time?

Typically not in the same sense: reserved withholds ekka.dot from registration, while premium prices an open ekka.dot above standard, so they describe different states. Amazon Registry Services assigns whichever applies to ekka.dot. Since status can change, re-check ekka.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars?

Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.

Why isn't ekka.dot resolving even though I added the records?

If ekka.dot won't resolve, first confirm the nameservers at your registrar match where the zone is actually hosted, then check for typos in the A or CNAME values. Cached TTLs or a missing apex record are common culprits. Verify with a DNS query tool, and review your settings under /domains.

Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark for mobile money?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
