Frequently asked questions about recherche.dot

What should I know about Amazon Registry and .PAY before registering for BNPL checkout?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A regional bank can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.

Why keep a fallback name ready alongside recherche.dot?

Keeping a fallback alongside recherche.dot protects you if your top pre-order doesn't land, since a refundable $100 attempt means a backup adds little risk. domain.pay makes lining up a recherche.dot fallback easy. Set one up at https://domain.pay/register.

What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for digital wallets?

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.

Can I register recherche.dot and a matching .com together?

Yes, many brands hold both recherche.dot and the matching .com, using one as the primary site and 301-redirecting the other to it. This protects the brand and captures direct-type traffic on both. You can secure recherche.dot now at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a donation platform use .PAY for a branded payment page?

Yes. A donation platform can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

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.
