Frequently asked questions about winners.dot
Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for crypto payments?
.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.
Does winners.dot help with cross-border payments?
A .PAY name like winners.dot reads the same in any market, so international customers recognize the payment intent without translation. That universality makes winners.dot a clean hub for global checkout links. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for online checkout?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
Is the refund policy the same for premium winners.dot pre-orders?
Yes, the stated refund policy covers failed pre-order attempts on winners.dot whether winners.dot is standard or premium. A higher premium fee on a failed attempt is refunded the same way as a $100 standard one. Read the policy for winners.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for donation payments?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
