Frequently asked questions about cardmember.dot
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin when choosing merchant.pay?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
How should robots.txt be configured for cardmember.dot?
Place a robots.txt at the root of cardmember.dot that allows crawling of public pages, disallows admin or duplicate paths, and points to your sitemap. Be careful not to accidentally block all of cardmember.dot with a stray Disallow: /. Test the file in Search Console after deploying.
When is broader .PAY public registration expected for BNPL checkout?
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.
Where can I pre-order cardmember.dot to protect the NicNames name?
You can pre-order cardmember.dot directly through domain.pay, with a standard pre-order fee of $100 and refunds on failed attempts. Securing cardmember.dot this way puts the official cardmember.dot payment name under NicNames's control. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
Should a checkout product manager protect its exact brand in .PAY for in-app purchases?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
