Frequently asked questions about hopon.dot

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for digital wallets?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Does the TMCH charge me anything to enable an SMD for hopon.dot?

The Trademark Clearinghouse sets its own fees for recording and validating your mark, independent of NicNames's registration pricing for hopon.dot. NicNames's standard pre-order for hopon.dot is listed at $100, separate from any TMCH costs. Plan for both when pursuing priority on hopon.dot. See registrar pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.

As a bank or credit union, what happens to my money if the .PAY registration attempt fails?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

Why does hopon.dot need eligibility validation?

If Amazon Registry Services attaches requirements to hopon.dot, registering hopon.dot may need eligibility validation before it completes. The lookup flags any such condition so there are no surprises. Confirm what hopon.dot requires — status can change — at https://domain.pay/domains.

Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

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.
