Frequently asked questions about refreshing.dot
What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for point-of-sale payments?
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.
What is HSTS and should I enable it on refreshing.dot?
HTTP Strict Transport Security tells browsers to always load refreshing.dot over HTTPS, blocking downgrade attacks. Enable it with a response header once refreshing.dot reliably serves valid SSL, and only after confirming every subresource is HTTPS. Start with a short max-age before committing refreshing.dot to a long policy.
Can I reserve brand.pay before broader registration opens for digital wallets?
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.
When should I decide between sunrise and general availability for refreshing.dot?
Decide as early as possible: if you hold a matching trademark, prepare for sunrise on refreshing.dot; if not, target general availability. Either way, pre-ordering refreshing.dot now stages your request. Make the call at https://domain.pay/register.
How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for secure payment links?
.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.
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.
