Frequently asked questions about initialized.dot

As a crypto or DeFi product, how do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?

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.

Are nonprofits a good use case for initialized.dot?

Donation flows benefit from clarity, and initialized.dot reads as the place to give. A .PAY address on flyers and appeals signals a secure giving page and shortens the path from intent to donation. Nonprofits can reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.

Should a remittance app protect its exact brand in .PAY for rent collection?

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.

Will domain.pay notify me when initialized.dot is registered?

Yes. domain.pay updates your account as your pre-order or priority request for initialized.dot progresses, so you know when initialized.dot is submitted, registered, or refunded if the attempt fails per the stated policy. Track the status of initialized.dot from https://domain.pay/register.

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.

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.
