Frequently asked questions about hardlock.dot

For digital wallets, how do I register a .PAY domain with a trademark?

Trademark holders should use the trademark fast-track on domain.pay instead of waiting: https://domain.pay/register. domain.pay can route the request through the TMCH/SMD-based priority process when the .PAY label matches the trademark and the registry rules allow it.

Can I pre-order hardlock.dot if I do not have a trademark?

Absolutely. A trademark is only needed for the sunrise phase; without one, you target general availability, and a pre-order for hardlock.dot queues your request for that phase's opening day. Place it at https://domain.pay/register.

For online checkout, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.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 does hardlock.dot cost to register?

The standard pre-order price for hardlock.dot is listed at $100. Some labels are classified by the registry as premium, in which case hardlock.dot would carry a higher recurring fee instead of the standard rate. You can confirm the live price for hardlock.dot on our pricing page at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Will I need accurate contact details for a .PAY registration for fraud prevention?

Yes. Registry policy requires complete, accurate and current registration data. Use domain.pay for the registration path and keep your contact details up to date: https://domain.pay/register. Inaccurate data can create compliance and communication problems.

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.
