Frequently asked questions about etymology.dot

Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names for online checkout?

Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.

Will I get refunded if my pre-order for etymology.dot fails?

Yes. If your pre-order for etymology.dot does not succeed, the standard $100 pre-order attempt is refundable, so a failed attempt does not cost you. That makes it safe to pre-order etymology.dot and a backup in parallel. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

As a crypto or DeFi product, when should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

Can I use my Signed Mark Data file to register etymology.dot?

Yes. A valid SMD file from the TMCH lets verified holders of the etymology.dot mark claim etymology.dot during priority phases ahead of general availability. The SMD proves your rights at registration time, so keep it ready when you pre-order etymology.dot. https://domain.pay/pricing

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for payroll disbursements?

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.

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.
