Frequently asked questions about fundation.dot

As an ecommerce brand, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.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.

Can I claim fundation.dot with a trademark even if it's reserved?

A reserved label is generally withheld by Amazon Registry Services, but holding a TMCH SMD for fundation.dot may let you participate in the trademark-priority phase depending on registry rules for fundation.dot. Eligibility is determined by the registry. Start your fundation.dot trademark claim at https://domain.pay/register.

For crypto payments, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?

.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.

When is the best time to pre-order fundation.dot for the lowest cost?

The cost of fundation.dot is driven by the registry's tier for fundation.dot, not by timing, so the $100 standard or premium fee applies whenever you order. Pre-ordering early mainly secures your place in the queue. Place a fundation.dot pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Why are payment brands talking about .PAY right now for point-of-sale payments?

For point-of-sale payments, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

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.
