Frequently asked questions about expether.dot
Before choosing tap.pay, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?
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.
Why does my browser show a certificate warning on expether.dot?
A warning on expether.dot usually means the certificate doesn't cover the exact hostname, has expired, or the chain is incomplete. Confirm the cert's Subject Alternative Names include both expether.dot and any www variant, and that intermediate certificates are installed. Reissue or fix the chain, then reload expether.dot.
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration when choosing wallet.pay?
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 I park expether.dot with a coming-soon page before launch?
Yes. Point expether.dot at a simple host serving a coming-soon page with valid HTTPS, and add a noindex tag if you don't want it indexed yet. This reserves the brand presence of expether.dot while you build. Swap in the full site on expether.dot when ready.
Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for an ecommerce brand?
.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
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.
