Frequently asked questions about sharkfin.dot

Can a donation platform use .PAY for a branded payment page for fraud prevention?

Yes. A donation platform can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

Can I start the SMD process for sharkfin.dot if my trademark is in another country?

Yes. The TMCH accepts qualifying marks from many jurisdictions, so a validated foreign trademark can yield an SMD to claim sharkfin.dot, provided it matches the sharkfin.dot string. NicNames honours that SMD regardless of the issuing country for sharkfin.dot. Begin your priority registration at https://domain.pay/register.

How do I register a .PAY domain as a startup for a brand-protection manager?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

Can I pre-order sharkfin.dot if my trademark application is still pending?

Trademark-priority for sharkfin.dot requires a TMCH SMD file, which the Trademark Clearinghouse issues only for validated marks, so a pending application alone may not qualify for sharkfin.dot. You can still place a standard pre-order for sharkfin.dot meanwhile. Choose a path at https://domain.pay/register.

How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration when choosing link.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.

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.
