Frequently asked questions about shikari.dot

Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order for a crypto or DeFi product?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

Who should consider registering shikari.dot first?

Brands that own the trademark for shikari.dot should act first, since they get priority for shikari.dot via an SMD file during the trademark window. After that, anyone wanting the payment address can place a first-day pre-order. Begin at /register.

Is there VIP help for a large .PAY pre-order portfolio for payroll disbursements?

domain.pay says customers with pre-orders over $8,888 may qualify for VIP handling, dedicated support and more tailored failed-registration solutions. Review the current VIP language on the pricing page: https://domain.pay/pricing. Large portfolios should still expect availability and premium checks.

Does shikari.dot work like a normal website address?

Yes, shikari.dot resolves through the standard DNS just like any .com or .org address. You can point shikari.dot at a website, a payment processor, or a redirect, and browsers treat it normally. The only difference is the payments-focused .PAY suffix.

For point-of-sale payments, how do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
