Frequently asked questions about students.dot

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium for mobile money?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

Will owning students.dot help if scammers use my logo on a fake site?

Owning students.dot denies scammers the genuine students.dot address, so even if they copy NicNames's logo elsewhere, they cannot anchor the scam to your real payment name. This makes their fake easier for customers to question. Secure students.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for a retail brand?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

Can I run students.dot entirely on a static host like GitHub Pages?

Yes. Point students.dot at the static host using their required A/CNAME records, add students.dot as the custom domain in the host's settings, and enable their automatic HTTPS. Static hosting is fast and cheap for students.dot when you don't need server-side code.

Is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing for fraud prevention?

.PAY can work for subscription billing, account payment, renewal and failed-payment recovery flows. Search brandable options on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. A clear .PAY label can reduce confusion when customers need to update payment details.

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.
