Frequently asked questions about returns.dot
Is .PAY meant for BNPL checkout or just for general websites?
.PAY is best understood as a payment-focused domain ending for use cases such as BNPL checkout, checkout, billing, wallets and fintech. It is not a compliance substitute, but it can make the URL purpose clearer. Check your label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
What is the first step to secure returns.dot for my startup?
The first step to secure returns.dot is to search returns.dot on domain.pay and choose trademark-priority (if you have a TMCH SMD file) or a standard pre-order at $100. The flow then queues your returns.dot request with the registry. Take the first step at https://domain.pay/register.
How do I register a .PAY domain with a trademark for digital wallets?
Trademark holders should use the trademark fast-track on domain.pay instead of waiting: https://domain.pay/register. domain.pay can route the request through the TMCH/SMD-based priority process when the .PAY label matches the trademark and the registry rules allow it.
Which returns.dot pre-orders are not refundable?
A returns.dot pre-order that succeeds and results in an active registration is generally non-refundable, since the registry has allocated the name to you. Only failed attempts on returns.dot are refundable under our stated policy. Review the policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Are IDN .PAY domains allowed for a mobile wallet team?
IDN .PAY names may be possible only in supported scripts and must meet registry rules. Use domain.pay to check the exact label and punycode-style status before planning a launch: https://domain.pay/register. Availability, premium and policy restrictions still apply.
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.
