Frequently asked questions about proofing.dot
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for digital wallets?
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.
How should I think about proofing.dot versus buying many domain variants?
Instead of stacking many extensions, proofing.dot gives you one purpose-built payment address that says what it does. It focuses your spend on the name customers will actually use to pay proofing.dot. Compare available options at /domains.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?
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.
Does holding proofing.dot via TMCH renew automatically?
Securing proofing.dot through trademark priority registers the name to you, but ongoing renewal of proofing.dot follows standard registrar renewal terms, separate from your TMCH record. Keep both your domain renewal and TMCH record current to maintain protection. Manage your proofing.dot registration starting at https://domain.pay/register.
For payroll disbursements, 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.
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.
