Frequently asked questions about bald.dot

Where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check for a remittance app?

Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.

Where do I start a priority pre-order for bald.dot?

You can start a priority pre-order for bald.dot from its registration page, where you add VIP handling and, if eligible, supply a TMCH SMD file for the trademark phase. The applicable $100 standard or premium bald.dot fee is shown before you confirm bald.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

As an insurance billing portal, can Amazon Registry reserve or block some .PAY names?

The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.

Will switching from a .com to bald.dot cost me SEO traffic?

A move to bald.dot only risks traffic if it's done without proper 301 redirects from every old URL to its match on bald.dot. With correct redirects, a canonical update, and a Search Console change-of-address, rankings transfer over time. Plan the migration to bald.dot carefully and monitor results.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for fraud prevention?

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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services 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.
