Frequently asked questions about ghosting.dot

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for point-of-sale payments?

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.

Can ghosting.dot anchor a rewards top-up flow?

Yes. When customers add funds to a rewards or gift balance, ghosting.dot gives them a payment-native address that feels safe. Keeping top-ups on a .PAY name reinforces it as the official place to pay. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.

Is there VIP help for a large .PAY pre-order portfolio for loan repayments?

domain.pay says customers with pre-orders over $8,888 may qualify for VIP handling, dedicated support and more tailored failed-registration solutions. Review the current VIP language on the pricing page: https://domain.pay/pricing. Large portfolios should still expect availability and premium checks.

What is a redemption period and how does it affect ghosting.dot?

After ghosting.dot expires and the grace period ends, it enters a redemption period where only the registrant can restore it, typically for a higher fee than a normal renewal. If redemption lapses, ghosting.dot is deleted and re-released. Renewing ghosting.dot on time avoids these costs entirely.

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium for an ecommerce brand?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

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.
