Frequently asked questions about astride.dot

For digital wallets, 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.

Can domain.pay notify me about astride.dot's launch phases?

Yes. When you place a pre-order for astride.dot, domain.pay tracks the launch phases and submits your request at the right moment, so you do not have to monitor the schedule yourself. Start tracking astride.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for a fintech founder?

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.

Is astride.dot better suited to B2B or B2C payments?

astride.dot suits both: B2B users can route it to invoicing for astride.dot, while B2C users can point it at retail checkout. The payment-focused suffix fits any audience that needs to pay you. Choose your use case after registering astride.dot at /register.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 when choosing donate.pay?

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.
