Frequently asked questions about captor.dot
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.
Can I change the nameservers on captor.dot without losing email?
Yes, if you recreate the MX (and SPF/DKIM/DMARC) records at the new DNS host before switching nameservers for captor.dot. Identical records mean mail keeps flowing through the cutover of captor.dot. Verify captor.dot's email after the change by sending a test message.
As a travel booking brand, is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal?
Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.
What should I prepare before pre-ordering captor.dot?
Before pre-ordering captor.dot, decide whether you qualify for trademark priority (which needs a TMCH SMD file for captor.dot) or will use a standard pre-order, and have your account and payment ready. The flow then walks you through captor.dot. Prepare and start at https://domain.pay/register.
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for digital wallets?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
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.
