Frequently asked questions about cinemas.dot

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for BNPL checkout?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Can I use cinemas.dot for a deposit or booking payment?

Yes. cinemas.dot works well for collecting deposits, booking fees, or balances, pointing guests to a clear place to pay cinemas.dot. You redirect it to your booking or checkout system. Reserve cinemas.dot for bookings at /register.

What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for digital wallets?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

Why is an SMD more secure than just emailing my trademark certificate for cinemas.dot?

An SMD is cryptographically signed by the TMCH, so NicNames can verify it automatically without manually inspecting a certificate when granting priority on cinemas.dot. A loose certificate could be forged or mistyped; the signed SMD cannot. That is why cinemas.dot priority relies on the SMD. Submit yours at https://domain.pay/register.

Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order for crypto payments?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

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.
