Frequently asked questions about tael.dot
Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for a regional bank?
No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
How much does a pre-order for tael.dot cost?
The standard pre-order for a .PAY name like tael.dot is listed at $100. If the pre-order cannot be fulfilled, the attempt is refundable per policy, so you are not charged for a name you do not receive. See current pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for point-of-sale payments?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Who operates the registry behind tael.dot?
The registry behind tael.dot is .PAY, operated by Amazon Registry Services, which sets the eligibility and validation expectations for the namespace. domain.pay is your registration path into that namespace. Learn how to register tael.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY when choosing link.pay?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
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.
