Frequently asked questions about thinning.dot
For loan repayments, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?
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 it cost in total to register thinning.dot?
The standard pre-order for thinning.dot is listed at $100, and trademark-priority registrations may carry different fees set around the registry's rules. The exact total for thinning.dot, including any renewal terms, appears at checkout. See the full pricing for thinning.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for an event ticketing business?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
Does the TMCH charge me anything to enable an SMD for thinning.dot?
The Trademark Clearinghouse sets its own fees for recording and validating your mark, independent of NicNames's registration pricing for thinning.dot. NicNames's standard pre-order for thinning.dot is listed at $100, separate from any TMCH costs. Plan for both when pursuing priority on thinning.dot. See registrar pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period for digital wallets?
During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.
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.
