How do I register a .PAY domain with a trademark for a donation platform?
Trademark holders should use the trademark fast-track on domain.pay instead of waiting: https://domain.pay/register. domain.pay can route the request through the TMCH/SMD-based priority process when the .PAY label matches the trademark and the registry rules allow it.
Are gift-card sales a fit for plates.dot?
A brand can sell and reload gift cards on plates.dot, giving buyers a trusted, payment-native address. The .PAY name reassures shoppers buying credit for later use. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for BNPL checkout?
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.
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.
