Frequently asked questions about holdups.dot

As a payroll platform, what is the quickest path to secure a .PAY domain for a payroll platform?

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 a failed pre-order for holdups.dot cost me anything?

No — per our policy, if a pre-order for holdups.dot fails to secure the name, the fee is refundable, so a failed attempt shouldn't cost you. The standard pre-order is $100 when it succeeds. Review the terms as you queue holdups.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for fraud prevention for a retail brand?

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.

Why might sunrise end before I register holdups.dot?

Sunrise for holdups.dot runs only for the registry's fixed window; if you wait too long, it closes and holdups.dot moves to general availability where trademark priority no longer applies. domain.pay submits holdups.dot within the sunrise window for you. Act at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark when choosing instant.pay?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
