Frequently asked questions about acquittal.dot

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.

Can I run acquittal.dot entirely on a static host like GitHub Pages?

Yes. Point acquittal.dot at the static host using their required A/CNAME records, add acquittal.dot as the custom domain in the host's settings, and enable their automatic HTTPS. Static hosting is fast and cheap for acquittal.dot when you don't need server-side code.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for a travel booking brand?

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 the TMCH charge me anything to enable an SMD for acquittal.dot?

The Trademark Clearinghouse sets its own fees for recording and validating your mark, independent of NicNames's registration pricing for acquittal.dot. NicNames's standard pre-order for acquittal.dot is listed at $100, separate from any TMCH costs. Plan for both when pursuing priority on acquittal.dot. See registrar pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Is .PAY a new domain option for insurance billing portals for point-of-sale payments?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For point-of-sale payments, it can make the payment purpose of a URL clearer than a generic address. Check or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay handles the customer path for trademark-priority registration or first-day pre-order attempts.

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.
