Frequently asked questions about stec.dot
How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark when choosing tap.pay?
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.
How is premium different from reserved for stec.dot?
For stec.dot, premium means the registry allows registration but at a higher wholesale price, while reserved means Amazon Registry Services has withheld it from registration entirely. One is buyable at a special price; the other isn't open at all. Confirm which applies to stec.dot — status can change — at https://domain.pay/domains.
For mobile money, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?
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.
What makes stec.dot eligible for first-day pre-order?
stec.dot is eligible for first-day pre-order when stec.dot is not reserved and is slated to enter general availability, letting your request be ready for opening day. The domain.pay flow confirms first-day eligibility for stec.dot. Set it up at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration for marketplace payouts?
.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.
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.
