Frequently asked questions about ccfoundation.dot

For payroll disbursements, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?

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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

Can I register ccfoundation.dot and pay over installments?

Registration of ccfoundation.dot is charged as a single annual payment at the $100 standard or premium ccfoundation.dot rate; installment billing is not part of the registry model. Any third-party financing would be through your payment provider. See the ccfoundation.dot payment terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For mobile money, 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.

Why keep a fallback name ready alongside ccfoundation.dot?

Keeping a fallback alongside ccfoundation.dot protects you if your top pre-order doesn't land, since a refundable $100 attempt means a backup adds little risk. domain.pay makes lining up a ccfoundation.dot fallback easy. Set one up 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.

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.
