Frequently asked questions about ipath.dot
Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars for an event ticketing business?
Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use a foreign trademark to claim ipath.dot via TMCH?
The Trademark Clearinghouse accepts marks from many jurisdictions worldwide, so a qualifying foreign trademark can be recorded and produce an SMD for claiming ipath.dot. The mark must be validated by the TMCH and match the ipath.dot string. NicNames then honours that SMD for priority on ipath.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring?
No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Should small businesses bother protecting ipath.dot too?
Yes. Impersonators target any recognizable ipath.dot, not just large enterprises, and a fake payment page using ipath.dot can damage trust regardless of company size. The standard pre-order is $100 and failed attempts are refundable, so protecting ipath.dot is accessible to small brands. https://domain.pay/register
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for fraud prevention?
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.
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.
