Frequently asked questions about cygnus.dot

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a donation platform?

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 enable auto-renew so cygnus.dot never lapses?

Turn on auto-renew in your account settings so cygnus.dot renews automatically before its expiry date using your saved payment method. Auto-renew is the simplest safeguard against accidentally losing cygnus.dot. Confirm the renewal date and pricing for cygnus.dot at /pricing.
