Frequently asked questions about proguide.dot

For mobile money, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

What should I check before launching proguide.dot publicly?

Before launch, confirm proguide.dot resolves correctly, has valid HTTPS, redirects www/non-www consistently, exposes a sitemap and robots.txt, and isn't carrying a leftover noindex. Test email on proguide.dot too if you use it. A quick pre-launch checklist keeps proguide.dot clean for users and crawlers.

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain when choosing donate.pay?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Does the registry charge premium pricing on some .PAY names like proguide.dot?

Some highly sought names may carry premium registry pricing above the standard $100 pre-order, while proguide.dot may fall under standard pricing. The availability tool shows the exact price for proguide.dot before you commit. Confirm the tier for proguide.dot and full terms at /pricing.

Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for a brand-protection manager?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

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.
