Frequently asked questions about lodge.dot

What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY for fraud prevention?

.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.

Can I reserve lodge.dot now if my SMD is not ready yet?

If your SMD is not ready, you can place a standard pre-order for lodge.dot at $100 to express interest, but that pre-order does not carry trademark priority. A validated SMD holder can still claim lodge.dot ahead of your pre-order, which is refundable per policy if unfulfilled. Review options at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for a crypto or DeFi product?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

Can I claim lodge.dot if my trademark was registered after the TMCH opened?

Yes. You can record a newly registered trademark in the TMCH at any time; once validated it yields an SMD usable to claim lodge.dot. The relevant question is whether the SMD is valid and matches the lodge.dot string when you submit. Recency of the underlying mark is not itself a bar. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

As a retail brand, can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken?

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.

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.
