Frequently asked questions about iij.dot
Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL for online checkout?
merchant.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
Will I be refunded if my pre-order for iij.dot fails?
Yes. If a pre-order attempt for iij.dot does not result in a successful registration, the fee is refundable per the stated policy. This applies when iij.dot cannot be allocated to you for reasons outside your control. Review terms and start at https://domain.pay/register.
For fraud prevention, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Does iij.dot work like a normal website address?
Yes, iij.dot resolves through the standard DNS just like any .com or .org address. You can point iij.dot at a website, a payment processor, or a redirect, and browsers treat it normally. The only difference is the payments-focused .PAY suffix.
Should a remittance app protect its exact brand in .PAY?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
