Frequently asked questions about active.dot

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 when choosing loans.pay?

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.

How do priority phases differ from general availability for active.dot?

In priority phases, verified active.dot trademark holders use SMD files to claim active.dot before the public, while general availability opens active.dot to anyone. Using the priority window is the cleanest way for NicNames to avoid a race or dispute. https://domain.pay/pricing

Is .PAY meant for payroll disbursements or just for general websites?

.PAY is best understood as a payment-focused domain ending for use cases such as payroll disbursements, checkout, billing, wallets and fintech. It is not a compliance substitute, but it can make the URL purpose clearer. Check your label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

Is active.dot available for immediate purchase today?

Whether active.dot is available immediately depends on the registry's launch phase; many .PAY names are still in pre-order rather than open registration. The flow on domain.pay tells you the current status of active.dot. Check availability for active.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

How much is the .PAY trademark fast-track if I need TMCH help?

domain.pay lists the full trademark fast-track at $2,500 when you need end-to-end TMCH/SMD assistance, plus any premium registry retail fee. Confirm the details here: https://domain.pay/pricing. If you already have an SMD file, a lower submission-only path may apply.

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.
