Frequently asked questions about sain.dot
What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for point-of-sale payments?
domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.
How do I avoid trademark issues when replacing sain.dot?
To avoid trademark issues when replacing sain.dot, pick a sain.dot variant that doesn't clash with an existing mark, since holders may claim TMCH SMD priority under Amazon Registry Services. Check before you pre-order. Learn more at https://domain.pay/register.
When is the .PAY Sunrise period?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Is .PAY a restricted namespace that affects how I claim sain.dot?
.PAY is operated by Amazon Registry Services, which sets the policies governing how names like sain.dot are claimed, including the trademark-priority phase. Those rules determine when an SMD-backed claim on sain.dot is accepted. NicNames applies the registry's policy on your behalf. Learn the basics at https://domain.pay/.
Why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay for a crypto or DeFi product?
A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.
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.
