Frequently asked questions about afuera.dot
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for a donation platform?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
Can I pre-order afuera.dot and a related name together?
Yes. domain.pay lets you pre-order afuera.dot alongside related .PAY labels in one place, each queued for its own launch phase. This is handy for protecting a set of names around afuera.dot. Browse and add them at https://domain.pay/domains.
As an insurance billing portal, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
What makes afuera.dot different from a .com?
Unlike an open TLD, afuera.dot sits in the .PAY namespace operated by Amazon Registry Services, which may apply eligibility and validation expectations around payment-related use. This positions afuera.dot for financial branding. domain.pay can register it for you at https://domain.pay/register.
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.
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.
