Frequently asked questions about andover.dot
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for point-of-sale payments?
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.
How do I prevent andover.dot from being indexed during development?
Add an X-Robots-Tag or meta noindex to the staging version of andover.dot, or block crawlers in robots.txt, and ideally put it behind HTTP auth. Remove these once andover.dot is ready so search engines can index the live site. Never ship noindex to production by accident on andover.dot.
How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for a brand-protection manager?
.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.
How do I tell if andover.dot is truly free or just unlisted?
A real lookup distinguishes them: searching andover.dot at https://domain.pay/domains returns andover.dot's exact registry status from Amazon Registry Services rather than a guess. If it's free, it'll say available; if reserved or blocked, it'll say so. Re-check andover.dot, since status can change.
How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for loan repayments?
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.
