Frequently asked questions about cnr.dot
Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period when choosing link.pay?
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.
Does cnr.dot suit a recurring donation program?
Monthly giving programs benefit from a steady address donors trust, and cnr.dot provides a payment-native home for recurring gifts. Supporters can update cards on the same .PAY name they first gave on. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I generate .PAY ideas for online checkout for a retail brand?
For online checkout, brainstorm short, action-oriented .PAY labels and then verify them in the domain.pay catalog/search: https://domain.pay/domains. Good candidates are clear, memorable and tied to payment actions like checkout, billing, wallet funding, payouts or invoices.
How early should I prepare my SMD relative to the cnr.dot priority phase?
Prepare your SMD well before the cnr.dot priority phase, since TMCH validation takes time you do not control. Having a valid SMD ready means you can submit the moment priority opens for cnr.dot. Late preparation risks missing the window. Get set up and register at https://domain.pay/register.
Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can an ecommerce brand get one?
Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. An ecommerce brand can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.
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.
