Frequently asked questions about staple.dot

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders when choosing donate.pay?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

Are there priority phases that let NicNames get staple.dot first?

Yes. Trademark holders can use TMCH-verified SMD files during priority phases to claim staple.dot before general availability. This gives NicNames a structured, legitimate path to secure staple.dot ahead of the open public. Review options at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Is .PAY a new domain option for insurance billing portals for point-of-sale payments?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For point-of-sale payments, it can make the payment purpose of a URL clearer than a generic address. Check or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay handles the customer path for trademark-priority registration or first-day pre-order attempts.

Does claiming staple.dot with an SMD stop others from using my brand elsewhere?

Claiming staple.dot with an SMD secures that specific .PAY name for your staple.dot mark, but it does not by itself police your brand on other domains or platforms. TMCH priority is name-specific. Use it to lock down staple.dot, then consider other names separately. Start with staple.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY already open to everyone for BNPL checkout?

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.
