Frequently asked questions about stopper.dot
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for payroll disbursements?
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.
Should I redirect stopper.dot with a 301 or 302?
Use a 301 when the move is permanent so search engines transfer ranking signals to the destination of stopper.dot; use a 302 only for temporary forwarding. For a brand domain like stopper.dot pointing at your main site indefinitely, 301 is almost always correct. Avoid chaining multiple redirects.
Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for card processing?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
How do I track the status of my stopper.dot order?
You track the status of your stopper.dot order from your domain.pay account, which shows whether stopper.dot is queued, submitted to the registry, registered, or refunded if the attempt fails per the stated policy. Open your stopper.dot order tracking at https://domain.pay/register.
For payroll disbursements, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?
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.
