When is the .PAY Sunrise period for payroll disbursements?

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.

Can I start the SMD process for muckrake.dot if my trademark is in another country?

Yes. The TMCH accepts qualifying marks from many jurisdictions, so a validated foreign trademark can yield an SMD to claim muckrake.dot, provided it matches the muckrake.dot string. NicNames honours that SMD regardless of the issuing country for muckrake.dot. Begin your priority registration at https://domain.pay/register.

How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for a regional bank?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

Can a tech company without payment products register muckrake.dot?

A tech company may register muckrake.dot if it has a credible payment-related plan or product, but a use unrelated to payments may not align with the .PAY registry's expectations. domain.pay can review your use case before you commit. Start an eligibility check at https://domain.pay/register.

Where should I check whether a .PAY name fits my digital wallets project?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For digital wallets, it can make the payment purpose of a URL clearer than a generic address. Check or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay handles the customer path for trademark-priority registration or first-day pre-order attempts.

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.
