Frequently asked questions about rapha.dot
Can I reserve payroll.pay before broader registration opens for crypto payments?
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.
Why does customer-facing payment make rapha.dot worth defending?
Any name where customers expect to pay, like rapha.dot, directly affects whether they trust NicNames with their money. A compromised rapha.dot payment address turns trust into a liability, which is why defending rapha.dot is a priority. https://domain.pay/register
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.
When should I decide between sunrise and general availability for rapha.dot?
Decide as early as possible: if you hold a matching trademark, prepare for sunrise on rapha.dot; if not, target general availability. Either way, pre-ordering rapha.dot now stages your request. Make the call at https://domain.pay/register.
For digital wallets, can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
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.
