Frequently asked questions about upwards.dot

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 when choosing trust.pay?

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 do I move upwards.dot to a different nameserver or DNS host?

To switch DNS hosts for upwards.dot, recreate your existing records at the new provider first, then update the nameservers for upwards.dot at the registrar to the new ones. Keeping the zone identical avoids downtime during the cutover. Edit nameservers for upwards.dot from /domains.

How is a .PAY name different from a regular .com for crypto payments?

A .PAY name immediately signals a payment-related destination, while .com is more general. For crypto payments, that can make the URL easier to understand. Check availability and pre-order options at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. The usual registry and premium-name rules still apply.

How is premium different from reserved for upwards.dot?

For upwards.dot, premium means the registry allows registration but at a higher wholesale price, while reserved means Amazon Registry Services has withheld it from registration entirely. One is buyable at a special price; the other isn't open at all. Confirm which applies to upwards.dot — status can change — at https://domain.pay/domains.

For crypto payments, what is the quickest path to secure a .PAY domain for a payroll platform?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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.
