Frequently asked questions about kontur.dot
Where can I see already-registered .PAY domains when choosing merchant.pay?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
Should small businesses worry about kontur.dot licensing rules?
Small businesses generally do not need a special license just to register kontur.dot, since the .PAY registry validates payment-related use rather than issuing licenses. Any licensing duty would come from operating regulated payments under local law. domain.pay clarifies registry expectations at https://domain.pay/register.
During the .PAY launch, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Is owning kontur.dot a recognized best practice for brand security?
Securing the exact-match name on a payment-purpose TLD, such as kontur.dot, aligns with widely recommended brand-security practices because it removes the most convincing impersonation vector for the kontur.dot name. It is a foundational step for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register
Is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal when choosing merchant.pay?
Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.
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.
