Frequently asked questions about napkin.dot

How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration for a crypto or DeFi product?

.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.

What canonical URL should I set for pages on napkin.dot?

Each page on napkin.dot should declare a self-referencing canonical link to its preferred URL, using a single consistent scheme, host, and trailing-slash style. This prevents duplicate-content confusion across www, non-www, and parameter variants of napkin.dot. Keep canonicals absolute and HTTPS.

As an ecommerce brand, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

What is the difference between standard and premium for napkin.dot?

Standard means napkin.dot is offered at the $100 annual rate, while premium means Amazon Registry Services has assigned napkin.dot a higher recurring fee. The classification, set by the registry, is the only thing separating the two for napkin.dot. See which applies at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for a fintech founder?

.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.
