Frequently asked questions about gri.dot
Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken when choosing settle.pay?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
How long does TMCH validation take before I can register gri.dot?
TMCH validation timing depends on the Clearinghouse, not on NicNames, so begin the process well before you intend to claim gri.dot. Only after validation completes do you receive the SMD file needed for priority on gri.dot. Plan ahead so your SMD is ready when the priority phase opens. Prepare your registration at https://domain.pay/register.
When is the .PAY Sunrise period for a fintech founder?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.
Is the refund policy the same for premium gri.dot pre-orders?
Yes, the stated refund policy covers failed pre-order attempts on gri.dot whether gri.dot is standard or premium. A higher premium fee on a failed attempt is refunded the same way as a $100 standard one. Read the policy for gri.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility when choosing link.pay?
During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.
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.
