Frequently asked questions about widget.dot

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Can I pre-order widget.dot now and pay the premium fee later?

Placing a widget.dot pre-order authorizes the applicable fee up front, including a premium fee if the registry has tiered widget.dot that way, so payment is not deferred. A failed widget.dot attempt is refundable under our stated policy. Start at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What is a .PAY domain and why does it matter for point-of-sale payments?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For point-of-sale payments, it can make the payment purpose of a URL clearer than a generic address. Check or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay handles the customer path for trademark-priority registration or first-day pre-order attempts.

Can I reserve widget.dot before general availability?

You cannot lock widget.dot permanently before its phase, but you can pre-order it now so domain.pay submits your registration the moment general availability begins. This puts you ahead of anyone who waits until launch day to start. Place your pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration for donation payments?

.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.

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.
