Frequently asked questions about acra.dot

Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for a mobile wallet team?

After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.

What happens after my SMD is accepted for acra.dot?

Once NicNames accepts your SMD, your trademark-priority claim on acra.dot is recorded and processed ahead of standard pre-orders. If the claim succeeds, acra.dot is registered to you; if it cannot be completed, charges are refundable per policy. Watch your confirmation and manage it from your account. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for BNPL checkout?

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.

Should I use acra.dot for a microsite or my main site?

Both work. A short, brandable name like acra.dot can anchor your main site, or serve a focused campaign microsite that 301s to your hub later. The choice is strategic, not technical — search engines index acra.dot the same either way. Decide based on your brand plan.

For BNPL checkout, when is broader .PAY public registration expected?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: 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.
