Frequently asked questions about positioning.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.
What evidence does the TMCH need before issuing the SMD I use for positioning.dot?
The Trademark Clearinghouse requires proof of a registered, valid trademark and may request a sample of use before issuing the SMD you use for positioning.dot. Only after that validation is the SMD available. NicNames then accepts that file for priority on positioning.dot. Prepare your evidence, then register at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use .PAY for redirects to my existing checkout?
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.
Which statuses can positioning.dot have at the registry?
At any moment positioning.dot can be available, premium (open at a special registry price), reserved (withheld), blocked (off-limits), or registered (already owned). These are set by Amazon Registry Services and can change. Check which applies to positioning.dot now at https://domain.pay/domains.
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for BNPL checkout?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
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.
