Frequently asked questions about kickstarter.dot
For fraud prevention, where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
Does the TMCH actually help me secure kickstarter.dot?
The Trademark Clearinghouse verifies your rights in the kickstarter.dot mark and issues an SMD file you can use to claim kickstarter.dot during priority phases and to receive notices if others try to register it. It does not auto-register kickstarter.dot for you, but it gives verified holders a real head start. https://domain.pay/pricing
As an ecommerce brand, where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
How does kickstarter.dot fit a deposit-and-balance model?
For businesses that take a deposit then a final balance, kickstarter.dot hosts both steps on the same trusted address. Customers recognize the .PAY name across the two payments, reducing friction on the second. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
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.
