Frequently asked questions about startselect.dot
What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY when choosing link.pay?
.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.
Is startselect.dot a good home for a billing dashboard?
Routing your customer billing dashboard to startselect.dot gives account holders a stable, payment-native address to manage cards and invoices. The consistency lowers support load when people search for "where do I pay." Start at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a fintech founder use .PAY for a branded payment page for point-of-sale payments?
Yes. A fintech founder can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
Why centralize subscriptions on startselect.dot?
When a brand sells several subscription tiers, startselect.dot gives customers one payment-native hub to manage them all. A single .PAY address simplifies upgrades, downgrades, and card updates. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
What should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY for mobile money?
Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.
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.
