Frequently asked questions about pairs.dot
Can I use .PAY for redirects to my existing checkout for payroll disbursements?
Yes, you can use a .PAY domain as a clean branded entry point or redirect to an existing checkout, but implement redirects, SSL and tracking carefully. First secure or pre-order the label through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Can multiple businesses share a name pattern but not pairs.dot itself?
Each .PAY name is unique, so only one party can hold pairs.dot at a time, though others may register different pairs.dot variants. Once you secure pairs.dot, that exact address is yours alone. Stake your claim to pairs.dot at /register.
How do I know if merchant.pay is available for a donation platform?
Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.
Can I lock pairs.dot to specific certificate authorities only?
Yes, via a CAA record you restrict which CAs may issue certificates for pairs.dot, reducing mis-issuance risk. List each authorized CA's identifier for pairs.dot in DNS. Combine the CAA on pairs.dot with monitoring of Certificate Transparency logs for full coverage.
Before choosing donate.pay, 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.
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.
