Frequently asked questions about handheld.dot
What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for a brand-protection manager?
.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.
What happens to my pre-order if handheld.dot goes to a trademark holder?
If a trademark holder claims handheld.dot during the priority window, your general pre-order cannot succeed, and domain.pay refunds the failed attempt per its policy. You are not charged for a name you could not obtain. Refund terms are on /pricing.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for a donation platform?
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.
When do I get charged for handheld.dot?
You authorize payment when you place the pre-order for handheld.dot, and the charge is finalized once the registration succeeds. If the handheld.dot pre-order fails, the attempt is refundable under our stated policy. See timing details at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check for mobile money?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
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.
