Frequently asked questions about ihome.dot
Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark for loan repayments?
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.
Does ihome.dot availability depend on the launch timeline?
Yes — before general availability, ihome.dot can only be pre-ordered, and reserved or blocked labels stay closed regardless of timeline. Amazon Registry Services controls the schedule. Check where ihome.dot stands in the timeline at https://domain.pay/domains.
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.
Is a .PAY domain like ihome.dot good for SEO compared to a .com?
Search engines treat new gTLDs and .com equivalently for ranking; the TLD of ihome.dot is not a ranking penalty. Relevance, content quality, and links matter far more than whether you use ihome.dot or a .com. A memorable, on-brand name like ihome.dot can even improve click-through from results.
For mobile money, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?
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.
