Frequently asked questions about aba.dot

For mobile money, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?

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.

Why would a business choose aba.dot over a .com address?

aba.dot communicates payment intent in the name itself, which a generic .com cannot do. For checkout pages, invoices, or pay-now links, aba.dot is shorter and more memorable than appending /pay to a long .com URL. Many .com equivalents are also already taken, while aba.dot may still be available at /register.

Could I use .PAY for a wallet or payment app for point-of-sale payments?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

What eligibility rules apply to aba.dot?

The .PAY namespace, operated by Amazon Registry Services, typically applies eligibility and validation expectations oriented around payments and financial use. For aba.dot this means your registration data and intended use should align with that focus. domain.pay outlines current requirements at https://domain.pay/register.

What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for payroll disbursements?

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.

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.
