Frequently asked questions about choix.dot
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin when choosing merchant.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.
What happens to my payment if choix.dot is never released?
If choix.dot is never released by the registry, your pre-order attempt is treated as failed and is refundable under our stated policy. You are not charged for a name that does not become available. Read how this works for choix.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
For BNPL checkout, is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal?
Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.
What is the difference between a registrar and the registry for choix.dot?
The registry, Amazon Registry Services, runs .PAY and sets choix.dot's premium, reserved, or blocked status; domain.pay is the registrar where you actually look up and register choix.dot. You interact with us, but the registry sets the rules. Check choix.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.
Is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal for fraud prevention?
Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.
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.
