Frequently asked questions about capes.dot
Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing merchant.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.
Can I pre-order multiple .PAY names including capes.dot?
Yes. You can pre-order several .PAY labels alongside capes.dot, each queued for its launch phase independently. This is useful if you want capes.dot plus related names. Browse and add them at https://domain.pay/domains.
For point-of-sale payments, what .PAY name should an event ticketing business consider?
travel.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
Are nonprofits eligible to register capes.dot?
Nonprofits may be eligible to register capes.dot, particularly where their use relates to donations, payments, or financial functions that fit the .PAY namespace. The registry typically validates relevant use rather than entity type. domain.pay can confirm eligibility at https://domain.pay/register.
Does .PAY have anti-abuse rules for marketplace payouts?
Amazon Registry policies include abuse-prevention rules for .PAY, and registrants remain subject to applicable domain dispute and abuse procedures. For legitimate registration or pre-order, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Pair the domain with monitoring, SSL and clear customer messaging.
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.
