Frequently asked questions about ithaka.dot

Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for marketplace payouts?

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.

Are sunrise claims for ithaka.dot more expensive than standard pre-orders?

Trademark-priority (sunrise-style) registration of ithaka.dot requires a valid TMCH SMD and follows NicNames's published pricing, while a standard pre-order for ithaka.dot is listed at $100. Priority pricing reflects the validated-rights path. Always check current figures rather than assuming. See the breakdown at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for crypto payments?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Can holding ithaka.dot prevent fake invoices using the ithaka.dot name?

Owning ithaka.dot means fraudsters cannot send invoices or payment links from the genuine ithaka.dot address, removing a powerful trust signal they would otherwise abuse. It does not stop every scam, but it closes the most convincing one. Secure ithaka.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a donation platform?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

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.
