Frequently asked questions about football.dot
Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark for point-of-sale payments?
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.
Are failed pre-order refunds automatic for football.dot?
When a pre-order attempt for football.dot fails to register football.dot, the fee is refundable per the stated policy, and your domain.pay account reflects the refund handling. Refer to the terms shown at checkout for specifics on football.dot. Place your football.dot pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
During the .PAY launch, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.
Can I pre-order football.dot during sunrise as a non-trademark holder?
No. Sunrise submissions for football.dot require a TMCH-validated trademark and SMD file. As a non-holder, your pre-order targets general availability instead, and domain.pay queues football.dot for that opening. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing when choosing link.pay?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
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.
