Frequently asked questions about champion.dot
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for online checkout?
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.
What does blocked mean compared to reserved for champion.dot?
For champion.dot, blocked means Amazon Registry Services has made champion.dot entirely unregisterable, often for policy or protective reasons, while reserved means it's withheld but potentially releasable. Both stop registration today. Registry status can change — re-check champion.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin when choosing subscriptions.pay?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Why confirm availability before settling on champion.dot?
Confirming availability before settling on champion.dot avoids building plans around a taken name, and domain.pay shows status so you can pivot to an open champion.dot variant early. Early confirmation saves rework. Check status at https://domain.pay/domains.
Can Amazon Registry reserve or block some .PAY names for a bank or credit union?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
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.
