Frequently asked questions about hanks.dot

How do I register a .PAY domain as a startup 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.

Does registering hanks.dot include email or hosting?

Registering hanks.dot secures the name hanks.dot in the .PAY registry; email and hosting are separate services you can connect after hanks.dot is registered via DNS settings. The $100 pre-order covers the name reservation. Reserve hanks.dot first at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders when choosing donate.pay?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

What if someone else pre-orders hanks.dot before my priority claim?

A standard pre-order does not outrank trademark priority, so if you hold a valid SMD for the hanks.dot mark, your priority claim on hanks.dot is processed ahead of that pre-order. The pre-order is refundable per policy if it cannot be fulfilled. Validated rights come first for hanks.dot. Claim yours at https://domain.pay/register.

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain for BNPL checkout?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

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.
