Frequently asked questions about bessa.dot

Should a remittance app protect its exact brand in .PAY for rent collection?

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.

Can I run bessa.dot entirely on a static host like GitHub Pages?

Yes. Point bessa.dot at the static host using their required A/CNAME records, add bessa.dot as the custom domain in the host's settings, and enable their automatic HTTPS. Static hosting is fast and cheap for bessa.dot when you don't need server-side code.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for loan repayments?

.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.

What MX priority values should I use for bessa.dot?

Set the lowest number on your primary mail server's MX for bessa.dot since lower priority is preferred, and use higher numbers for backups. Most providers give you the exact host and priority to enter for bessa.dot. Mismatched priorities can misroute mail for bessa.dot, so copy them precisely.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for mobile money?

.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.

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.
