Frequently asked questions about balance.dot

Before choosing wallet.pay, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

Who decides whether balance.dot is premium-priced?

Amazon Registry Services, the operator of the .PAY top-level domain, decides premium classification, so it determines whether balance.dot carries a premium fee or the $100 standard rate. We pass through the registry tier for balance.dot. Confirm the current classification for balance.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When is broader .PAY public registration expected for a crypto or DeFi product?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

How do I add a subdomain like blog.balance.dot?

Create a DNS record for the subdomain — typically a CNAME pointing blog.balance.dot at your host, or an A record to its IP. The subdomain of balance.dot inherits nothing automatically, so configure SSL and hosting for it separately. Manage records for balance.dot via /domains.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for a donation platform?

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.

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.
