Frequently asked questions about ist.dot

Before choosing donate.pay, 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.

Can I pursue both ist.dot and NicNames at once?

Yes. You can pre-order both ist.dot and NicNames on domain.pay at $100 each, and failed attempts are refundable, so pursuing two candidates is low-risk. This hedges your bet on ist.dot. Pre-order both at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for crypto payments?

If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.

Can eligibility for ist.dot change over time?

Yes, the .PAY registry operated by Amazon Registry Services may update its eligibility and validation expectations over time, which could affect future ist.dot registrations or renewals. domain.pay tracks current policy and keeps you informed. Check the latest before registering at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I reserve brand.pay before broader registration opens when choosing brand.pay?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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.
