Frequently asked questions about animus.dot
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for fraud prevention?
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.
Can a marketplace platform register animus.dot?
A marketplace that handles payments or checkout can often register animus.dot, since such use fits the .PAY namespace's payment focus. The registry may validate the specific intended use. domain.pay can help a marketplace secure animus.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
For crypto payments, what if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Should every page on animus.dot be served over HTTPS?
Yes. Serve all of animus.dot over HTTPS and redirect any HTTP request, since mixed or plain-HTTP pages trigger browser warnings and can hurt trust. Modern SEO and security baselines expect animus.dot to be fully encrypted. Add HSTS once animus.dot is reliably HTTPS-only.
For BNPL checkout, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?
.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
