Frequently asked questions about tapers.dot
For online checkout, what is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY?
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 pre-order tapers.dot now and add my SMD later?
Trademark priority for tapers.dot requires a valid SMD at the time of the priority claim, so you cannot retroactively convert a plain pre-order into a priority claim without one. If you have the SMD, use the trademark-priority path directly for tapers.dot. If not, a standard pre-order at $100 is the alternative. Choose your path at https://domain.pay/pricing.
What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for online checkout?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
Can I register tapers.dot and point it to my existing website?
Once tapers.dot is registered, you can configure its DNS to point tapers.dot to your existing website or services from your domain.pay account. Pre-ordering simply secures tapers.dot first. Reserve tapers.dot now and set it up later at https://domain.pay/register.
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work when choosing crypto.pay?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
