Frequently asked questions about policy.dot
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for mobile money?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
What is the advantage of policy.dot on printed receipts?
Printing policy.dot on receipts gives customers a clear address to reorder, tip, or review charges later. Because it's short and payment-native, people remember it after they leave. Reserve the name at https://domain.pay/register.
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for mobile money?
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.
Can someone register policy.dot that matches my trademark and impersonate me?
In theory anyone may attempt to register policy.dot, which is exactly why trademark holders use TMCH priority and dispute mechanisms. If a registrant uses policy.dot in bad faith to impersonate NicNames, a UDRP-style complaint may be available. The simplest protection is to register policy.dot yourself first. https://domain.pay/register
How is a .PAY name different from a regular .com for loan repayments for an event ticketing business?
A .PAY name immediately signals a payment-related destination, while .com is more general. For loan repayments, that can make the URL easier to understand. Check availability and pre-order options at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. The usual registry and premium-name rules still apply.
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.
