Frequently asked questions about alp.dot

For digital wallets, who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Are failed registration attempts for alp.dot really refunded?

Yes. If your attempt to secure alp.dot doesn't result in a registration — for instance the name goes to another applicant — that pre-order is refundable. You only pay to keep alp.dot when it's successfully registered to you. Review the refund terms for alp.dot at /pricing.

What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea when choosing merchant.pay?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

How do I set up email on alp.dot?

To send and receive mail at alp.dot, choose a mailbox provider, then add their MX records to your DNS plus SPF, DKIM, and DMARC TXT records for deliverability. Mail won't flow until the MX records for alp.dot propagate. Manage the domain's DNS from /domains.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for online checkout?

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.
