Frequently asked questions about proud.dot
Why are payment brands talking about .PAY right now for point-of-sale payments?
For point-of-sale payments, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
What is the safest way to reserve proud.dot before competitors act?
The safest way to reserve proud.dot before competitors is to place a pre-order now so proud.dot is queued with the registry ahead of general availability, with the fee refundable if it fails per the stated policy. Brand owners can add trademark priority. Reserve proud.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for crypto payments?
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.
How do I know if proud.dot qualifies for trademark priority?
proud.dot qualifies for trademark priority if you hold a valid trademark on proud.dot recorded in the TMCH with an SMD file. With that, you can claim proud.dot during the registry's priority window. Start the trademark-priority process for proud.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
What .PAY domain style is best for trust and conversion for point-of-sale payments?
merchant.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
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.
