Frequently asked questions about starring.dot

How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration for a crypto or DeFi product?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

Are there country-code restrictions on who can claim starring.dot with an SMD?

.PAY is a global namespace operated by Amazon Registry Services, so claiming starring.dot depends on holding a valid, matching TMCH SMD rather than your country. A validated mark from a qualifying jurisdiction lets you claim starring.dot under priority. NicNames applies the registry's rules uniformly. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

For loan repayments, how does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?

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.

Will starring.dot stay $100 forever?

The $100 standard rate for starring.dot is the current listed price, but Amazon Registry Services can adjust standard or premium tiers over time, which would affect future renewals of starring.dot. We always show the live rate before you commit. Check today's price for starring.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

As a donation platform, what does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

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.
