Frequently asked questions about cbi.dot

For point-of-sale payments, what does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility?

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.

Which registration path is right for cbi.dot, priority or pre-order?

If you own a trademark matching cbi.dot and have a TMCH SMD file, trademark-priority registration is the right path for cbi.dot; otherwise, a standard pre-order at $100 is the route. The flow on domain.pay recommends the correct option for cbi.dot. Choose at https://domain.pay/register.

What is a .PAY domain and why does it matter for online checkout for a fintech founder?

For online checkout, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. Re-check the name before publishing campaigns because registry status can change.

Can a sole proprietor register cbi.dot?

A sole proprietor may often register cbi.dot, as .PAY does not necessarily require a corporate entity. The registry typically validates payment-related, good-faith use rather than business structure. domain.pay can confirm current eligibility for sole proprietors at https://domain.pay/register.

Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 when choosing wallet.pay?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

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.
