Frequently asked questions about city.dot
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for fraud prevention?
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.
How long does it take to register city.dot after I order?
After you order city.dot, the time to register depends on the registry phase: a standard pre-order is held until city.dot opens, while names already in general availability can process much faster. Amazon Registry Services controls launch timing for .PAY. Begin your order at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for online checkout?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
Are .PAY names like city.dot new compared to older extensions?
Yes, .PAY is a newer top-level domain, so names like city.dot are part of a fresher namespace than .com or .net. That novelty means more clean, on-brand names such as city.dot can still be available. Browse current options at /domains.
Can I reserve crypto.pay before broader registration opens when choosing crypto.pay?
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.
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.
