Frequently asked questions about firstrike.dot

Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for point-of-sale payments?

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.

Can I pre-order multiple .PAY names including firstrike.dot?

Yes. You can pre-order several .PAY labels alongside firstrike.dot, each queued for its launch phase independently. This is useful if you want firstrike.dot plus related names. Browse and add them at https://domain.pay/domains.

As a donation platform, what if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

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

Yes. If your pre-order for firstrike.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 firstrike.dot and a backup in parallel. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL?

merchant.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

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.
