Frequently asked questions about pinch.dot

Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now when choosing tap.pay?

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 was my pinch.dot pre-order refunded?

A refund on pinch.dot usually means the pre-order attempt failed, for example because the registry allocated the name elsewhere or it never reached general availability. Failed attempts are refundable under our stated policy. See refund details for pinch.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL for payroll disbursements?

cloud.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

What ongoing steps keep pinch.dot protected after I register it?

After registering pinch.dot, keep it renewed, maintain accurate registrant records, monitor for pinch.dot lookalikes, and reinforce to customers that pinch.dot is the only official payment address. Ownership plus upkeep keeps NicNames protected over time. https://domain.pay/

Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for crypto payments?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.

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.
