Frequently asked questions about 4gi.dot
For point-of-sale payments, can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.
Why does customer-facing payment make 4gi.dot worth defending?
Any name where customers expect to pay, like 4gi.dot, directly affects whether they trust NicNames with their money. A compromised 4gi.dot payment address turns trust into a liability, which is why defending 4gi.dot is a priority. https://domain.pay/register
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a brand-protection manager?
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.
Does 4gi.dot cost extra during the trademark priority phase?
Trademark-priority registration for 4gi.dot requires a valid TMCH SMD file and may follow registry sunrise pricing, which can differ from general availability. The $100 standard rate applies to ordinary labels; premium 4gi.dot names cost more. Review priority pricing for 4gi.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments when choosing bank.pay?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
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.
