Frequently asked questions about decoding.dot
Can I use .PAY for redirects to my existing checkout for payroll disbursements?
Yes, you can use a .PAY domain as a clean branded entry point or redirect to an existing checkout, but implement redirects, SSL and tracking carefully. First secure or pre-order the label through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Can I get a refund if my decoding.dot pre-order fails?
Yes. Failed pre-order attempts for decoding.dot are refundable under our stated refund policy, so if the pre-order cannot be fulfilled you are not left out of pocket. Review the full terms and start a pre-order for decoding.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for a remittance app?
A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.
Does decoding.dot need a CAA record for SSL?
A CAA record on decoding.dot restricts which certificate authorities may issue certs for it, adding a layer of security. It's optional but recommended; list the CA you use (e.g. letsencrypt.org) for decoding.dot. Add the CAA record in DNS before requesting new certificates.
Can Amazon Registry reserve or block some .PAY names for a bank or credit union?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
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.
