Frequently asked questions about subtype.dot

Where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check for payroll disbursements?

Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.

Is it worth registering subtype.dot defensively for my brand?

Holding subtype.dot defensively keeps a brand-matching .PAY name out of others' hands and lets you redirect it to your main site. It's a common brand-protection step, especially in payments-adjacent industries. You can secure subtype.dot via a standard pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing when choosing link.pay?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

Can I get help validating my mark before I register subtype.dot?

Mark validation happens at the Trademark Clearinghouse, which reviews your evidence before issuing the SMD you need for subtype.dot. NicNames handles the registration step once your SMD is in hand. Complete TMCH validation first, then bring the SMD to claim subtype.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for a bank or credit union?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
