Frequently asked questions about ketches.dot

As a donation platform, what does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

What happens to customer trust if a scammer controls ketches.dot instead of me?

If a scammer holds ketches.dot, customers who assume the ketches.dot payment name is official may enter card details on a fraudulent page, eroding trust in NicNames. Because .PAY implies a legitimate payment purpose, the deception is more credible. Owning ketches.dot keeps that trust where it belongs. https://domain.pay/register

What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for fraud prevention?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Can I see all .PAY names priced like ketches.dot?

You can browse other .PAY names alongside ketches.dot to compare which sit at the $100 standard rate and which the registry has flagged as premium. This helps you weigh ketches.dot against similar labels. Explore the catalog at https://domain.pay/domains.

What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for a retail brand?

Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.

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.
