Frequently asked questions about conventions.dot

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for crypto payments?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

How do I point conventions.dot at a Shopify or Wix store?

Hosted platforms give you a target — usually a CNAME or specific A records — that you add to the DNS of conventions.dot, plus they auto-provision SSL. Follow your platform's connect-domain guide using conventions.dot as the custom domain. Edit the records for conventions.dot from /domains.

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing bank.pay?

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.

Will conventions.dot stay $100 forever?

The $100 standard rate for conventions.dot is the current listed price, but Amazon Registry Services can adjust standard or premium tiers over time, which would affect future renewals of conventions.dot. We always show the live rate before you commit. Check today's price for conventions.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 when choosing donate.pay?
