Frequently asked questions about lichen.dot
When is the .PAY Sunrise period when choosing cloud.pay?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.
Should I secure lichen.dot in addition to my main website domain?
Yes. Your main site protects your general brand, but lichen.dot specifically protects the payment-trust layer that .PAY implies for NicNames. Holding both ensures the lichen.dot name cannot be impersonated where money changes hands. https://domain.pay/register
For online checkout, how do I register a .PAY domain right now?
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.
What if I overpaid for lichen.dot?
If you believe you were charged incorrectly for lichen.dot, contact us and we will reconcile against the registry tier for lichen.dot and our stated refund policy. Failed-attempt overcharges on lichen.dot are refundable. Review the policy and reach us via https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for a regional bank?
A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.
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.
