Frequently asked questions about softtouch.dot

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for fraud prevention?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What proof does NicNames need to grant me priority on softtouch.dot?

To grant trademark priority on softtouch.dot, NicNames needs a valid TMCH SMD file whose encoded mark matches the softtouch.dot string. The SMD is your cryptographic proof of validated trademark rights. No SMD means no priority claim is possible for softtouch.dot. Submit your proof at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing subscriptions.pay?

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.

What does registered mean for softtouch.dot?

Registered means softtouch.dot is currently owned by someone who completed registration, so it's unavailable to claim until it lapses or is released. This differs from reserved or premium, which are registry classifications, not third-party ownership. Re-check softtouch.dot — registry status can change — at https://domain.pay/domains.

What disputes can affect a .PAY Sunrise name for card processing?

.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.

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.
