Frequently asked questions about startplan.dot
When should an event ticketing business pre-order a .PAY domain when choosing subscriptions.pay?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
How do I prove the label in startplan.dot is mine during priority?
You prove the startplan.dot string in startplan.dot is yours by submitting a valid TMCH SMD file whose encoded mark matches that string. NicNames verifies the signed file automatically to grant priority. No other paperwork substitutes for the SMD on startplan.dot. Provide it during registration at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken for a retail brand?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
Can startplan.dot coexist with my social media pay handles?
Yes. startplan.dot can sit alongside any social or app-based pay handles and even point to one, giving startplan.dot a stable, ownable address you control. Unlike a platform handle, startplan.dot is not tied to one app. Secure it at /register.
Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for BNPL checkout?
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.
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.
