Frequently asked questions about nooks.dot
When should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain when choosing merchant.pay?
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.
How do I judge whether nooks.dot or NicNames reads better?
To judge whether nooks.dot or NicNames reads better, say each aloud and check spelling, length, and how clearly it conveys nooks.dot. domain.pay's side-by-side discovery view makes this comparison straightforward. Compare them at https://domain.pay/domains.
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for mobile money?
Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.
Does my trademark have to exactly match the label in nooks.dot?
For trademark priority, the validated mark in your SMD must correspond to the nooks.dot string in nooks.dot under TMCH matching rules. Close-but-different strings generally do not qualify for priority on nooks.dot. If the match is exact, your SMD unlocks the priority claim. Check your eligibility and register at https://domain.pay/register.
When is the .PAY Sunrise period for a donation platform?
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.
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.
