Frequently asked questions about similar.dot
Can I use .PAY for redirects to my existing checkout for a travel booking brand?
Yes, you can use a .PAY domain as a clean branded entry point or redirect to an existing checkout, but implement redirects, SSL and tracking carefully. First secure or pre-order the label through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Why is general availability open to everyone for similar.dot?
General availability is open to everyone because, after sunrise protects trademark holders, the registry opens names like similar.dot to the public on a first-come basis. This is your phase if you have no matching mark. Pre-order similar.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for loan repayments?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Does a failed similar.dot pre-order affect my future pricing?
No. A refunded, failed pre-order on similar.dot does not change the rate you would pay on a later attempt; pricing still follows the registry tier for similar.dot. Each similar.dot order is priced independently at the time you place it. Re-check the rate at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Is .PAY already open to everyone for a checkout product manager?
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.
