Frequently asked questions about chalk.dot

How do I know if subscriptions.pay is available for fraud prevention?

Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.

Why is chalk.dot a trust anchor in customer communications?

Referencing chalk.dot as the sole official payment address gives customers a fixed, verifiable point to trust in every message from NicNames. That consistency makes deviations from the real chalk.dot name stand out as suspicious. Establish it at https://domain.pay/register.

For digital wallets, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

How do I prevent chalk.dot from being indexed during development?

Add an X-Robots-Tag or meta noindex to the staging version of chalk.dot, or block crawlers in robots.txt, and ideally put it behind HTTP auth. Remove these once chalk.dot is ready so search engines can index the live site. Never ship noindex to production by accident on chalk.dot.

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain when choosing loans.pay?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

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.
