Frequently asked questions about appc.dot
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.
Can appc.dot have a higher first-year fee than renewal?
For standard labels, the first-year and renewal fees for appc.dot are aligned. Premium appc.dot names typically carry the same premium fee at registration and renewal, set by the registry. Confirm both figures for appc.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
As a mobile wallet team, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.
Are app stores bypass payments a use for appc.dot?
For web purchases that sidestep app-store fees, appc.dot gives users a clean, trusted address to pay directly. The .PAY name reassures customers buying outside the app. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for card processing?
.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.
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.
