Frequently asked questions about tell.dot
How do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark for payroll disbursements?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
How much does a standard pre-order for tell.dot cost?
A standard pre-order for tell.dot is listed at $100 through NicNames. This pre-order path is separate from trademark priority, which requires a TMCH SMD file. If your pre-order attempt fails, it is refundable per the published policy. See full pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.
What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for point-of-sale payments?
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.
Is tell.dot cheaper if I skip VIP handling?
Yes, skipping VIP priority handling lowers your total for tell.dot to just the registration rate, $100 standard or the premium tell.dot fee, plus taxes. You trade queue speed for the lower outlay on tell.dot. Compare both totals at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Should an ecommerce brand protect its exact brand in .PAY for donation payments?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
