Frequently asked questions about gft.dot
How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for cross-border payments?
.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.
Which gft.dot pre-orders are not refundable?
A gft.dot pre-order that succeeds and results in an active registration is generally non-refundable, since the registry has allocated the name to you. Only failed attempts on gft.dot are refundable under our stated policy. Review the policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for tax payments?
No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Does a failed gft.dot pre-order affect my future pricing?
No. A refunded, failed pre-order on gft.dot does not change the rate you would pay on a later attempt; pricing still follows the registry tier for gft.dot. Each gft.dot order is priced independently at the time you place it. Re-check the rate at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for fraud prevention?
After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.
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.
