Frequently asked questions about switched.dot

What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

Will I get refunded if my pre-order for switched.dot fails?

Yes. If your pre-order for switched.dot does not succeed, the standard $100 pre-order attempt is refundable, so a failed attempt does not cost you. That makes it safe to pre-order switched.dot and a backup in parallel. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

How much is the .PAY trademark fast-track if I need TMCH help for point-of-sale payments?

domain.pay lists the full trademark fast-track at $2,500 when you need end-to-end TMCH/SMD assistance, plus any premium registry retail fee. Confirm the details here: https://domain.pay/pricing. If you already have an SMD file, a lower submission-only path may apply.

Should a publisher use switched.dot for paywall checkout?

A publisher can route paywall subscriptions through switched.dot, giving readers a trusted, payment-native checkout. The clear .PAY address can ease the move from free reader to paying subscriber. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain when choosing cloud.pay?

A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.

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.
