Frequently asked questions about bandi.dot

For crypto payments, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

Why is a .PAY address like bandi.dot a high-value target for fraudsters?

Because .PAY signals a payment context, bandi.dot carries built-in credibility that fraudsters exploit to make fake checkout pages believable. The same trust that benefits NicNames makes an unprotected bandi.dot dangerous in the wrong hands. Removing the opportunity means registering bandi.dot first. https://domain.pay/register

How do I know if merchant.pay is available for mobile money?

Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.

Can I cancel my bandi.dot pre-order and get my money back?

You can cancel a pending bandi.dot pre-order before it is submitted, and if the attempt later fails it is refundable under our stated policy. Once bandi.dot is successfully registered, it is generally non-refundable. See cancellation terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Where do I start if I need brand-protection help for .PAY for cross-border payments?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

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.
