Frequently asked questions about dav.dot

What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for a fintech founder?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

What happens to my DNS records when dav.dot expires?

Once dav.dot expires and leaves the grace period, the registry may stop publishing your nameservers, so dav.dot stops resolving and any site or email goes dark. Restoring dav.dot during redemption brings it back, but you should re-verify records afterward. Renew dav.dot on time to keep DNS live.

What happens to my money if the .PAY registration attempt fails when choosing tap.pay?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

When does the standard pre-order fee for dav.dot apply?

The standard pre-order fee, listed at $100 through domain.pay, applies when you queue a first-day attempt for dav.dot. If that attempt fails, the fee is refundable per policy. Review when fees apply at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP when choosing tap.pay?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

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.
