Frequently asked questions about vdb.dot
Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders when choosing donate.pay?
.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
Why choose vdb.dot for a one-time campaign or event?
For a one-time sale, fundraiser, or event, vdb.dot gives you a clean, memorable address to collect payments for vdb.dot without reworking your main site. You can spin it up and redirect it fast. Grab vdb.dot for the campaign at /register.
Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark when choosing instant.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.
When can I actually use vdb.dot after a successful pre-order?
Once your pre-order for vdb.dot is fulfilled and the registration completes, you can immediately configure nameservers and DNS for vdb.dot and bring a site online. Activation timing depends on the registry's launch schedule for the .PAY phase. You'll be notified when vdb.dot is yours to configure.
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.
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.
