Frequently asked questions about shows.dot
Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark when choosing instant.pay?
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.
How do I compare shows.dot pricing against other .PAY names?
Use our catalog to line shows.dot up against other .PAY names and see which carry the $100 standard rate versus a registry premium fee for their shows.dot. This makes the relative cost of shows.dot clear at a glance. Browse and compare at https://domain.pay/domains.
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for crypto payments?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
When does general availability open for shows.dot?
General availability for shows.dot opens after the sunrise phase concludes, on the date set by the registry. domain.pay's first-day pre-order ensures your shows.dot request goes in as soon as that window opens. Reserve your spot at https://domain.pay/register.
Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order for digital wallets?
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.
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.
