Frequently asked questions about partner.dot
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work when choosing crypto.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.
How does the trademark claims notice apply to partner.dot?
During the registry's claims phase, if partner.dot matches a record in the Trademark Clearinghouse, you may receive a claims notice before partner.dot is registered, acknowledging the trademark holder's rights. domain.pay surfaces this in the flow for partner.dot. Proceed at https://domain.pay/register.
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments for a travel booking brand?
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.
How does NicNames verify my SMD signature for partner.dot?
NicNames checks the cryptographic signature embedded in your SMD against the Trademark Clearinghouse's trust chain before granting priority on partner.dot. If the signature and mark match the partner.dot string, the claim proceeds. A broken or mismatched signature blocks priority on partner.dot. Submit a valid file at https://domain.pay/register.
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for fraud prevention?
