Frequently asked questions about aqy.pay

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for an ecommerce brand?

.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 does trademark-priority registration of aqy.pay require a TMCH record first?

The .PAY registry, operated by Amazon Registry Services, only grants priority to marks already validated in the Trademark Clearinghouse. Your TMCH record produces the SMD file that proves rights to the aqy string in aqy.pay. Without that prior validation, NicNames has no recognised proof to grant you priority. Begin the flow at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration for marketplace payouts?

.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.

Are .PAY launch dates the same for every domain like aqy.pay?

Launch phases such as sunrise and general availability follow the registry's published schedule, and aqy.pay moves through the same standard phases as other .PAY names. The phase that matters to you depends on whether you hold a trademark. Start your aqy.pay request at https://domain.pay/register.

How do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark for crypto payments?

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.
