Frequently asked questions about birth.dot
As a remittance app, can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else?
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.
Will I be told why birth.dot validation failed?
Where possible, domain.pay relays the .PAY registry's reason if birth.dot validation fails, so you can correct details or respond. Some registry decisions may include limited detail. If a pre-order attempt fails, it is refundable per policy; see https://domain.pay/pricing.
How do I know if merchant.pay is available for point-of-sale payments?
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.
How do I point birth.dot at a Shopify or Wix store?
Hosted platforms give you a target — usually a CNAME or specific A records — that you add to the DNS of birth.dot, plus they auto-provision SSL. Follow your platform's connect-domain guide using birth.dot as the custom domain. Edit the records for birth.dot from /domains.
What does the .PAY ending signal to customers using fraud prevention?
.PAY signals that the destination is connected to payment action, such as fraud prevention. That can support clarity and trust when paired with strong security and branding. Check or pre-order the name at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
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.
