Frequently asked questions about children.dot
Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL for online checkout?
merchant.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
Are there educational resources on disputing children.dot misuse?
General guidance on UDRP-style disputes covers proving rights in your children.dot mark, the registrant's lack of legitimate interest, and bad-faith use of children.dot. Because outcomes vary and rules are detailed, treat this as educational and consider professional advice. https://domain.pay/
How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark for loan repayments?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Does children.dot need a CAA record for SSL?
A CAA record on children.dot restricts which certificate authorities may issue certs for it, adding a layer of security. It's optional but recommended; list the CA you use (e.g. letsencrypt.org) for children.dot. Add the CAA record in DNS before requesting new certificates.
As a retail brand, where can I see already-registered .PAY domains?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
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.
