Frequently asked questions about ngi.dot

Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for a donation platform?

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.

Can a licensee rather than the trademark owner claim ngi.dot?

Priority on ngi.dot flows from the validated TMCH mark, so the claim is normally made by the SMD holder of record for the ngi.dot mark. A licensee would need the appropriate authority and a usable SMD to act. Confirm who controls the SMD before claiming ngi.dot. Begin registration at https://domain.pay/register.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for BNPL checkout?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

How long does ngi.dot eligibility review take?

The time to review ngi.dot eligibility depends on the .PAY registry's validation workload and whether additional details are requested. Many registrations proceed without extended review, but timing isn't fixed. domain.pay keeps you updated throughout; start at https://domain.pay/register.

During the .PAY launch, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?

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.

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.
