Frequently asked questions about sames.dot
For online checkout, what if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY?
.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.
What TTL should I set for records on sames.dot?
A TTL of 3600 seconds (one hour) is a reasonable default for stable records on sames.dot, balancing fast updates against resolver load. Lower it to 300 before a planned migration of sames.dot, then raise it again once things are stable. Very low TTLs increase query volume slightly.
As a remittance app, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?
.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
What is a sunrise period and does it apply to sames.dot?
A sunrise period is the opening launch phase reserved for trademark owners, letting them claim names like sames.dot before the public. It applies to sames.dot only if you hold a TMCH-validated mark matching the label. Otherwise, general availability is your phase. Details at https://domain.pay/register.
Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for a payroll platform?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
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.
