Frequently asked questions about kapuso.dot

Can a donation platform use .PAY for a branded payment page?

Yes. A donation platform can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

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

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

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for online checkout?

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.

Why is an SMD more secure than just emailing my trademark certificate for kapuso.dot?

An SMD is cryptographically signed by the TMCH, so NicNames can verify it automatically without manually inspecting a certificate when granting priority on kapuso.dot. A loose certificate could be forged or mistyped; the signed SMD cannot. That is why kapuso.dot priority relies on the SMD. Submit yours at https://domain.pay/register.

For point-of-sale payments, is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing?

.PAY can work for subscription billing, account payment, renewal and failed-payment recovery flows. Search brandable options on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. A clear .PAY label can reduce confusion when customers need to update payment details.

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.
