Frequently asked questions about qualityscore.dot

As a crypto or DeFi product, what is the quickest path to secure a .PAY domain for a crypto or DeFi product?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

What happens to my DNS records when qualityscore.dot expires?

Once qualityscore.dot expires and leaves the grace period, the registry may stop publishing your nameservers, so qualityscore.dot stops resolving and any site or email goes dark. Restoring qualityscore.dot during redemption brings it back, but you should re-verify records afterward. Renew qualityscore.dot on time to keep DNS live.

For point-of-sale payments, 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.

Is the Trademark Clearinghouse the same as registering qualityscore.dot directly?

No. The Trademark Clearinghouse validates your mark and issues an SMD file, but it does not register qualityscore.dot itself. You still complete the actual registration of qualityscore.dot through NicNames, supplying that SMD to unlock trademark priority. The two steps are separate: validate first, then register at https://domain.pay/register.

Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period for BNPL checkout?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

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.
