Frequently asked questions about mtch.dot

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for BNPL checkout?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What happens if I let mtch.dot expire?

After expiry, mtch.dot enters a grace period during which you can usually still renew at the standard price, followed by a redemption period that may carry a higher restoration fee. If no one renews, mtch.dot is eventually released back to the registry. Renew early via /pricing to avoid the lifecycle stages entirely.

For BNPL checkout, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

What is general availability for a name like mtch.dot?

General availability is the open launch phase in which any registrant can claim mtch.dot on a first-come basis, after sunrise ends. It is the phase most buyers without trademarks use. A first-day pre-order stages mtch.dot for this moment at https://domain.pay/register.

Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for rent collection?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

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.
