Frequently asked questions about velvet.dot

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for an ecommerce brand?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Can I register velvet.dot during both Sunrise and general availability?

If you hold a TMCH SMD file for velvet.dot, you may attempt velvet.dot during Sunrise; if you miss it, you can still pre-order velvet.dot for general availability. Each phase has its own rules set by the registry. Choose the right phase for velvet.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for online checkout?

A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.

Which factors should rank a name above velvet.dot?

Rank a name above velvet.dot on length, spelling simplicity, pronounceability, distinctiveness, and how clearly it conveys velvet.dot. domain.pay's discovery view lets you weigh these factors side by side. Compare on these factors at https://domain.pay/domains.

Is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing for a mobile wallet team?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

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.
