Frequently asked questions about salad.dot
For payroll disbursements, what date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
Is salad.dot more sensitive to abuse because .PAY implies payments?
Yes. A payment-purpose TLD like .PAY raises anti-phishing and trust considerations because users reasonably expect salad.dot to handle money. That heightened trust is valuable to your NicNames but also attractive to scammers, so owning salad.dot protects both you and your customers. https://domain.pay/
How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration for online checkout?
.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.
Will my pre-order for salad.dot convert to a registration if no one claims priority?
If no validated SMD holder claims salad.dot during the priority phase, your standard pre-order at $100 is positioned to proceed toward registration under NicNames's process. Should it still fail to complete, the charge is refundable per policy. Trademark priority simply never displaces an unclaimed salad.dot. Place your pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.
As a regional bank, what happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
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.
