Frequently asked questions about lokal.dot
What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for BNPL checkout?
.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.
Will I get a refund if my SMD claim on lokal.dot cannot be completed?
If a charge is taken and your attempt to secure lokal.dot cannot be completed, it is refundable per the published policy at NicNames. This protects you from paying for a name you do not ultimately receive. Trademark-priority claims still depend on a valid SMD being accepted. Review the refund policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.
How do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark for BNPL checkout?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
What if someone else pre-orders lokal.dot before my priority claim?
A standard pre-order does not outrank trademark priority, so if you hold a valid SMD for the lokal.dot mark, your priority claim on lokal.dot is processed ahead of that pre-order. The pre-order is refundable per policy if it cannot be fulfilled. Validated rights come first for lokal.dot. Claim yours at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration for rent collection?
.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.
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.
