.PAY domain
Checking availability…
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
Yes — appearing on the premium list means decentralization.pay is available to register but at the registry's special wholesale price, not that it's blocked. Premium is a pricing tier from Amazon Registry Services and can change. See the live quote for decentralization.pay at https://domain.pay/domains.
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.
No. Sunrise is exclusively for owners of TMCH-validated trademarks. Without a matching mark, you register decentralization.pay during general availability instead, and a pre-order queues you for that. Start the GA route at https://domain.pay/register.
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
