Frequently asked questions about fests.dot
Before choosing loans.pay, 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.
What happens if I let fests.dot expire?
After expiry, fests.dot enters a grace period during which you can usually still renew at the standard price, followed by a redemption period that may carry a higher restoration fee. If no one renews, fests.dot is eventually released back to the registry. Renew early via /pricing to avoid the lifecycle stages entirely.
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for online checkout?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
Are there any extra fees beyond the price shown for fests.dot?
The price shown for fests.dot is the registration fee; optional add-ons like VIP priority handling are separate and clearly listed before checkout. Standard labels are $100 and premium fests.dot names cost more per the registry. See the full breakdown for fests.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration when choosing tap.pay?
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.
