Frequently asked questions about trappers.dot

As a retail brand, what is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

Which DNS record type connects trappers.dot to a load balancer?

Cloud load balancers are usually referenced by hostname, so you point the apex of trappers.dot using an ALIAS/ANAME record (or a CNAME on a subdomain) at the balancer's DNS name. This lets the balancer's IPs change without breaking trappers.dot. Your provider documents the exact target.

How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order when choosing secure.pay?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

How do I set up a wildcard certificate for *.trappers.dot?

Request a wildcard certificate covering *.trappers.dot, which most CAs issue via DNS validation by checking a TXT record on trappers.dot. A wildcard then secures every subdomain of trappers.dot with one cert. Remember the wildcard for trappers.dot does not cover the bare apex, so include it explicitly.

As a brand-protection manager, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?

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.

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.
