Frequently asked questions about thunderball.dot
How do I register donate.pay if it matches my trademark for mobile money?
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.
Does thunderball.dot work for a charity's text-to-give?
Pair thunderball.dot with a text-to-give campaign so a reply message sends donors to a memorable payment page. The short .PAY name is easy to include in an SMS and reads as a giving link. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
Why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay when choosing settle.pay?
A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.
Will my pre-order for thunderball.dot convert to a registration if no one claims priority?
If no validated SMD holder claims thunderball.dot during the priority phase, your standard pre-order at $100 is positioned to proceed toward registration under NicNames's process. Should it still fail to complete, the charge is refundable per policy. Trademark priority simply never displaces an unclaimed thunderball.dot. Place your pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names when choosing loans.pay?
Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.
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.
