Frequently asked questions about cached.dot
For online checkout, 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.
Is there a curated catalog where cached.dot might appear?
Yes, domain.pay maintains a curated catalog of payment-domain names, and names like cached.dot or close cached.dot variants may appear there for easy discovery. The catalog is organized so related ideas cluster together. Explore it at https://domain.pay/domains.
For payroll disbursements, what happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
How do I submit my SMD file when registering cached.dot?
During the trademark-priority flow for cached.dot, NicNames presents an upload field where you attach the .smd file exported from the Trademark Clearinghouse. The system parses the encoded mark and confirms the cached.dot label matches your validated trademark. Once accepted, your priority claim on cached.dot is queued. Upload it at https://domain.pay/register.
For crypto payments, is .PAY already open to everyone?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
