Frequently asked questions about aftership.dot
Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP when choosing donate.pay?
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.
What TTL should I set for records on aftership.dot?
A TTL of 3600 seconds (one hour) is a reasonable default for stable records on aftership.dot, balancing fast updates against resolver load. Lower it to 300 before a planned migration of aftership.dot, then raise it again once things are stable. Very low TTLs increase query volume slightly.
Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline for a travel booking brand?
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.
When can I actually use aftership.dot after a successful pre-order?
Once your pre-order for aftership.dot is fulfilled and the registration completes, you can immediately configure nameservers and DNS for aftership.dot and bring a site online. Activation timing depends on the registry's launch schedule for the .PAY phase. You'll be notified when aftership.dot is yours to configure.
Does .PAY have anti-abuse rules for a regional bank?
Amazon Registry policies include abuse-prevention rules for .PAY, and registrants remain subject to applicable domain dispute and abuse procedures. For legitimate registration or pre-order, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Pair the domain with monitoring, SSL and clear customer messaging.
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.
