Frequently asked questions about betas.dot

Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names for crypto payments?

Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.

Are failed pre-order refunds automatic for betas.dot?

When a pre-order attempt for betas.dot fails to register betas.dot, the fee is refundable per the stated policy, and your domain.pay account reflects the refund handling. Refer to the terms shown at checkout for specifics on betas.dot. Place your betas.dot pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

Is there VIP help for a large .PAY pre-order portfolio for a payroll platform?

domain.pay says customers with pre-orders over $8,888 may qualify for VIP handling, dedicated support and more tailored failed-registration solutions. Review the current VIP language on the pricing page: https://domain.pay/pricing. Large portfolios should still expect availability and premium checks.

Does betas.dot need a CAA record for SSL?

A CAA record on betas.dot restricts which certificate authorities may issue certs for it, adding a layer of security. It's optional but recommended; list the CA you use (e.g. letsencrypt.org) for betas.dot. Add the CAA record in DNS before requesting new certificates.

How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?

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.
