.PAY domain
Checking availability…
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.
Brands that own the trademark for somename should act first, since they get priority for somename.pay via an SMD file during the trademark window. After that, anyone wanting the payment address can place a first-day pre-order. Begin at /register.
Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.
Yes — .PAY, and therefore somename.pay, is operated by Amazon Registry Services, which sets the policies that classify labels as premium, reserved, or blocked. domain.pay is the registrar surface where you check and register somename.pay. See live status for somename.pay at https://domain.pay/domains.
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
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.
