Frequently asked questions about cardgrading.dot

When should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain when choosing merchant.pay?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Will my pre-order for cardgrading.dot convert to a registration if no one claims priority?

If no validated SMD holder claims cardgrading.dot during the priority phase, your standard pre-order at $100 is positioned to proceed toward registration under NicNames's process. Should it still fail to complete, the charge is refundable per policy. Trademark priority simply never displaces an unclaimed cardgrading.dot. Place your pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for crypto payments?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Can I pre-order cardgrading.dot and a backup name together?

Yes. You can pre-order cardgrading.dot alongside a backup .PAY name in case cardgrading.dot is allocated to someone else, improving your odds of securing at least one. Browse alternatives near cardgrading.dot at https://domain.pay/domains, then pre-order both at https://domain.pay/register.

For mobile money, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?

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.
