Frequently asked questions about cmt.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments when choosing link.pay?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Should small businesses bother protecting cmt.dot too?
Yes. Impersonators target any recognizable cmt.dot, not just large enterprises, and a fake payment page using cmt.dot can damage trust regardless of company size. The standard pre-order is $100 and failed attempts are refundable, so protecting cmt.dot is accessible to small brands. https://domain.pay/register
When should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain for BNPL checkout?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Can cmt.dot availability differ by registrar?
No — cmt.dot's core status is set by Amazon Registry Services, so it's the same across registrars; what differs is the experience and tools, like domain.pay's first-day pre-order and trademark-priority support. Check cmt.dot's registry status at https://domain.pay/domains.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for mobile money?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
