Frequently asked questions about rest.dot
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for mobile money?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Why was .PAY created for payment use?
The .PAY TLD, operated by Amazon Registry Services, was created to give payments and financial services a clearly themed namespace, which is why rest.dot may carry payment-related validation expectations. This helps signal trust to users. domain.pay can register rest.dot within this namespace at https://domain.pay/register.
For online checkout, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Can I get rest.dot if I hold a registered trademark?
Yes. If you hold a registered trademark matching rest.dot, you may use trademark-priority registration for rest.dot, which requires a valid TMCH SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse. This gives eligible brand owners a chance to claim rest.dot ahead of general availability. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
Should a remittance app protect its exact brand in .PAY for card processing?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
