Frequently asked questions about forthright.dot

Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order for a payroll platform?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

Can I pre-order forthright.dot before it is available?

Yes, you can place a pre-order for forthright.dot ahead of general availability so your request is queued and submitted when the registry opens the name. If the forthright.dot pre-order fails, the attempt is refundable. Start a pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for a mobile wallet team?

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 is the simplest summary of how to claim forthright.dot as a trademark holder?

In short: record your forthright.dot mark in the TMCH, download the validated SMD file, and submit it through NicNames during the priority phase to claim forthright.dot ahead of the public. If you lack an SMD, a standard pre-order for forthright.dot at $100 is the fallback. Get started at https://domain.pay/register.

What should I know about Amazon Registry and .PAY before registering for online checkout?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A travel booking brand can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.

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.
