Frequently asked questions about cradles.dot

Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for a regional bank?

No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Why did the price of cradles.dot change since I last checked?

The price of cradles.dot can change if Amazon Registry Services re-tiers cradles.dot between standard and premium, since we display the live registry rate. The $100 figure is the standard baseline, not a guaranteed lock. Re-check the current price for cradles.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for online checkout?

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.

Why do payment links on cradles.dot feel more official?

A purpose-built suffix from Amazon Registry Services gives cradles.dot a consistent, recognizable form that improvised URLs lack. Customers seeing cradles.dot read it as an intentional payment address for cradles.dot. That consistency lends an official feel.
