Frequently asked questions about hdl.dot

How do I register a .PAY domain as a startup when choosing payroll.pay?

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.

What role can hdl.dot play in an omnichannel strategy?

Across in-store signage, email, and social, hdl.dot can be the one payment address that ties every channel together. Customers learn a single place to pay, which strengthens recall and trust. Reserve the anchor name at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal when choosing merchant.pay?

Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.

Where do I start a priority pre-order for hdl.dot?

You can start a priority pre-order for hdl.dot from its registration page, where you add VIP handling and, if eligible, supply a TMCH SMD file for the trademark phase. The applicable $100 standard or premium hdl.dot fee is shown before you confirm hdl.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

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.

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.
