Frequently asked questions about chiv.dot

Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for mobile money?

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.

When is the best time to pre-order chiv.dot for the lowest cost?

The cost of chiv.dot is driven by the registry's tier for chiv.dot, not by timing, so the $100 standard or premium fee applies whenever you order. Pre-ordering early mainly secures your place in the queue. Place a chiv.dot pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for a bank or credit union?

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.

Is chiv.dot eligible for the standard pre-order?

Most open labels are eligible for the $100 standard pre-order, but if chiv.dot is premium the registry's special price applies instead, and reserved or blocked labels can't be pre-ordered. Confirm chiv.dot's eligibility — status can change — at https://domain.pay/domains.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for mobile money?

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.

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.
