Frequently asked questions about basketball.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for a mobile wallet team?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
How do I improve page speed for a site on basketball.dot?
Speed on basketball.dot comes from caching, image compression, minified assets, and a CDN — none of which depend on the TLD. Measure basketball.dot with a performance tool and fix the largest contentful paint and blocking resources first. Faster pages on basketball.dot help both users and rankings.
Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for payroll disbursements?
A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.
Can a non-licensed business register basketball.dot?
In many cases a business without a formal financial license may still register basketball.dot, since .PAY does not universally require licensing for every registrant. However, the registry may apply validation around payment-related use, so requirements can vary by intended purpose. Check current guidance at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
