Frequently asked questions about oldcastle.dot
For digital wallets, 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 first-day pre-order for oldcastle.dot?
First-day pre-order lets you request oldcastle.dot for the opening day of general availability, so your application is ready the moment oldcastle.dot becomes registrable. It is offered alongside standard pre-order on domain.pay. Set up first-day pre-order for oldcastle.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for payroll disbursements?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
Are pre-order fees for oldcastle.dot refundable?
Yes — per our policy, if a pre-order attempt for oldcastle.dot fails to secure the name, the fee is refundable. The standard pre-order is $100. See refund and process details when you place your order for oldcastle.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for fraud prevention?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
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.
