Frequently asked questions about silk.dot

How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order for fraud prevention?

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.

Are nonprofits able to use TMCH priority for silk.dot?

Any entity, including a nonprofit, that holds a validated TMCH trademark for the silk.dot string can use an SMD to claim silk.dot under priority. The path depends on the mark, not the organisation type. Validate your mark first, then claim silk.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for card processing?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

Can I register silk.dot and a matching .com together?

Yes, many brands hold both silk.dot and the matching .com, using one as the primary site and 301-redirecting the other to it. This protects the brand and captures direct-type traffic on both. You can secure silk.dot now at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I renew a .PAY domain after registration for point-of-sale payments?

.PAY names can be renewed through the registrar path if registry and registrar rules are met and renewal fees are paid. domain.pay explains the customer registration route here: https://domain.pay/register. Keep contact details current to avoid lifecycle problems.

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.
