Frequently asked questions about towel.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for payroll disbursements?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
How much does a pre-order for towel.dot cost?
The standard pre-order for a .PAY name like towel.dot is listed at $100. If the pre-order cannot be fulfilled, the attempt is refundable per policy, so you are not charged for a name you do not receive. See current pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars for BNPL checkout?
Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.
How does sunrise work for towel.dot?
Sunrise is the first launch phase, open only to brand owners with a trademark validated through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) and an SMD file. If you hold a matching mark, domain.pay can submit towel.dot during sunrise on your behalf. Learn about trademark-priority registration at https://domain.pay/register.
When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for fraud prevention?
ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
