Frequently asked questions about prefix.dot

For BNPL checkout, when is broader .PAY public registration expected?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Can I use a foreign trademark to claim prefix.dot via TMCH?

The Trademark Clearinghouse accepts marks from many jurisdictions worldwide, so a qualifying foreign trademark can be recorded and produce an SMD for claiming prefix.dot. The mark must be validated by the TMCH and match the prefix.dot string. NicNames then honours that SMD for priority on prefix.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can a checkout product manager get one for a checkout product manager?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A checkout product manager can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.

Does Amazon Registry Services review my SMD for prefix.dot directly?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY registry and defines the priority rules, but you submit your SMD for prefix.dot through NicNames as your registrar. NicNames validates the SMD and passes the qualifying claim to the registry. You do not deal with Amazon Registry Services directly for prefix.dot. Register via NicNames at https://domain.pay/register.

For payroll disbursements, how do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order?

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.

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.
