Frequently asked questions about starlight.dot

Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 when choosing donate.pay?

A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

Will premium status change my refund amount for starlight.dot?

If a premium starlight.dot pre-order fails, the refund under our stated policy returns whatever you were charged, so a higher premium starlight.dot fee is refunded in full rather than at the $100 standard amount. The refund matches your actual charge. Read the policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For fraud prevention, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.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.

Is starlight.dot eligible for the standard pre-order?

Most open labels are eligible for the $100 standard pre-order, but if starlight.dot is premium the registry's special price applies instead, and reserved or blocked labels can't be pre-ordered. Confirm starlight.dot's eligibility — status can change — at https://domain.pay/domains.

For crypto payments, what is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: 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.
