Frequently asked questions about opsguide.dot

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.

Why did my earlier opsguide.dot pre-order not convert?

A pre-order for opsguide.dot may not convert if Amazon Registry Services classified opsguide.dot as reserved or blocked, or another applicant secured it under launch rules. In those cases the fee is refundable per policy. Re-check opsguide.dot's status at https://domain.pay/domains.

Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark when choosing instant.pay?

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.

What if I do not have a trademark for opsguide.dot but still want opsguide.dot?

Without a trademark you simply skip the priority window and place a first-day pre-order for opsguide.dot during general availability. Many registrants take this path. domain.pay queues your opsguide.dot pre-order at /register.

For payroll disbursements, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: 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.
