Frequently asked questions about whir.dot

Could I use .PAY for a wallet or payment app for crypto payments?

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.

Is it worth registering whir.dot defensively for my brand?

Holding whir.dot defensively keeps a brand-matching .PAY name out of others' hands and lets you redirect it to your main site. It's a common brand-protection step, especially in payments-adjacent industries. You can secure whir.dot via a standard pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

For BNPL checkout, 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.

How do I renew whir.dot after the initial registration?

After whir.dot is registered, you renew whir.dot from your domain.pay account before its expiry, on the terms shown at checkout. Renewal pricing is separate from the $100 pre-order fee. See renewal terms for whir.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When is broader .PAY public registration expected when choosing settle.pay?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

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.
