Frequently asked questions about pacts.dot
How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order for an insurance billing portal?
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.
Is the Trademark Clearinghouse the same as registering pacts.dot directly?
No. The Trademark Clearinghouse validates your mark and issues an SMD file, but it does not register pacts.dot itself. You still complete the actual registration of pacts.dot through NicNames, supplying that SMD to unlock trademark priority. The two steps are separate: validate first, then register at https://domain.pay/register.
Could a lookalike .PAY domain harm customer trust for donation payments?
.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.
Can I pre-order pacts.dot before .PAY launches?
Yes — domain.pay offers a first-day pre-order so you can queue pacts.dot ahead of general availability. The standard pre-order is $100 and, per policy, failed attempts are refundable. Place your pre-order for pacts.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for crypto payments for a remittance app?
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.
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.
