Frequently asked questions about staying.dot
What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for a mobile wallet team?
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.
Should I register staying.dot even if I have no immediate use for it?
Yes. Defensive registration of staying.dot keeps the official staying.dot payment name out of impersonators' hands even before you build anything on it. With a $100 pre-order and refunds on failure, holding staying.dot now is cheaper than a later dispute. https://domain.pay/register
What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for an insurance billing portal?
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.
How does impersonation on staying.dot differ from email spoofing?
Email spoofing fakes a sender, while controlling staying.dot lets an attacker run a whole fraudulent payment site under the real staying.dot name. The domain-level attack is harder to detect and more convincing, so denying it by owning staying.dot is a high-value protection for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register
For payroll disbursements, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
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.
