Frequently asked questions about sift.dot
Can I reserve payroll.pay before broader registration opens for payroll disbursements?
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.
Does sift.dot work for a charity's text-to-give?
Pair sift.dot with a text-to-give campaign so a reply message sends donors to a memorable payment page. The short .PAY name is easy to include in an SMS and reads as a giving link. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can an ecommerce brand get one for an ecommerce brand?
Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. An ecommerce brand can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.
Why does sift.dot show available now but not yesterday?
Statuses shift: Amazon Registry Services may have released sift.dot from reserved, or a prior registration on sift.dot lapsed. That's why availability isn't static. Since registry status can change, re-check sift.dot at https://domain.pay/domains before relying on the result.
For mobile money, is .PAY already open to everyone?
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.
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.
