Frequently asked questions about taker.dot
Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for crypto payments?
A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.
Can I register taker.dot before general availability?
Yes, you can position for taker.dot before general availability using a first-day pre-order, or via trademark-priority registration if you hold a registered mark and TMCH SMD file. This helps you claim taker.dot early. domain.pay supports both at https://domain.pay/register.
As a crypto or DeFi product, how exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Should I buy taker.dot before or after building my product?
Securing taker.dot early locks in the brand-matching name and prevents someone else from taking it while you build. A pre-order for taker.dot is refundable if the attempt fails, so reserving it carries little downside. Start the pre-order for taker.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for loan repayments?
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.
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.
