Frequently asked questions about caving.dot

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for digital wallets?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

How does impersonation on caving.dot differ from email spoofing?

Email spoofing fakes a sender, while controlling caving.dot lets an attacker run a whole fraudulent payment site under the real caving.dot name. The domain-level attack is harder to detect and more convincing, so denying it by owning caving.dot is a high-value protection for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for crypto payments?

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.

What can a SaaS do with caving.dot for seat expansion?

When teams add seats, caving.dot gives admins a trusted address to pay for the upgrade mid-contract. The payment-native name keeps expansion purchases on a familiar page. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names for online checkout?

Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.

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.
