Frequently asked questions about metalock.dot

When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain for a payroll platform?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Does pre-ordering metalock.dot guarantee I get it?

A pre-order stages your metalock.dot request to be submitted the instant its phase opens, which maximizes your chance, but no registrar can guarantee a contested name. If the attempt fails, it is refundable per policy. Read the terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For digital wallets, is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

Are there any extra fees beyond the pre-order price for metalock.dot?

The standard pre-order for metalock.dot is listed at $100, and any additional charges for metalock.dot, such as trademark-priority or renewal terms, are shown separately before you confirm. Nothing is hidden once you reach checkout for metalock.dot. Review the full breakdown for metalock.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How do I know if merchant.pay is available for point-of-sale payments?

Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.

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.
