Frequently asked questions about sfo.dot
For payroll disbursements, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Does my country's regulation affect sfo.dot?
Your country's financial regulation can affect how you operate payment services on sfo.dot, even though it does not change the .PAY registry's own eligibility framework. The two layers are separate. domain.pay handles registry-side eligibility; consult local counsel on regulation. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for loan repayments?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Can I get a refund if my sfo.dot pre-order fails?
Yes. Failed pre-order attempts for sfo.dot are refundable under our stated refund policy, so if the pre-order cannot be fulfilled you are not left out of pocket. Review the full terms and start a pre-order for sfo.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
When is broader .PAY public registration expected when choosing settle.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. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
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.
