Frequently asked questions about tld.dot
Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline for BNPL checkout?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
Is tld.dot blocked by the registry?
A blocked label is one Amazon Registry Services has placed entirely off-limits, so tld.dot can't be registered while that block stands. Blocks differ from reservations and may be lifted under future policy, so registry status can change — re-check tld.dot. Run a live lookup at https://domain.pay/domains.
When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain for a payroll platform?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
How long does DNS propagation take after I configure tld.dot?
DNS changes for tld.dot usually propagate within minutes but can take up to 24-48 hours globally, depending on the TTL values on each record. Lowering the TTL before a planned change reduces the wait. Use a public DNS lookup tool to confirm tld.dot resolves consistently across resolvers.
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for payroll disbursements?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: 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.
