Frequently asked questions about gotcha.dot
How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark for digital wallets?
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 I change my mind after pre-ordering gotcha.dot?
Because a pre-order for gotcha.dot is only fulfilled if the registration succeeds, and failed attempts are refundable per policy, you are not locked into a name you never receive. Review the refund and cancellation terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for a regional bank?
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.
How do I avoid trademark issues when replacing gotcha.dot?
To avoid trademark issues when replacing gotcha.dot, pick a gotcha.dot variant that doesn't clash with an existing mark, since holders may claim TMCH SMD priority under Amazon Registry Services. Check before you pre-order. Learn more at https://domain.pay/register.
Can domain.pay submit my .PAY registration on opening day for payroll disbursements?
Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.
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.
