Frequently asked questions about straw.dot
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for payroll disbursements?
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. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Can I protect straw.dot across multiple related product names?
Yes. Beyond the core straw.dot name, you can record and pre-order related product marks so NicNames's broader payment presence is protected alongside straw.dot. Prioritize the names customers most associate with paying you. Compare at https://domain.pay/pricing.
What is a .PAY domain and why does it matter for mobile money?
For mobile money, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
How should I think about straw.dot versus buying many domain variants?
Instead of stacking many extensions, straw.dot gives you one purpose-built payment address that says what it does. It focuses your spend on the name customers will actually use to pay straw.dot. Compare available options at /domains.
Where can I see the exact .PAY premium price for wallet.pay for BNPL checkout?
Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.
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.
