Frequently asked questions about cdd.dot
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 when choosing settle.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.
Should I hold a payment license before buying cdd.dot?
You generally do not need a payment license to acquire cdd.dot, though running regulated payment services may require licensing under your own jurisdiction's law regardless of the domain. The .PAY registry validates use, not your licensing status. domain.pay explains current expectations at https://domain.pay/register.
Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names for an ecommerce brand?
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.
Where can I pre-order cdd.dot to protect the NicNames name?
You can pre-order cdd.dot directly through domain.pay, with a standard pre-order fee of $100 and refunds on failed attempts. Securing cdd.dot this way puts the official cdd.dot payment name under NicNames's control. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
As a bank or credit union, is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing?
.PAY can work for subscription billing, account payment, renewal and failed-payment recovery flows. Search brandable options on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. A clear .PAY label can reduce confusion when customers need to update payment details.
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.
