Frequently asked questions about decred.dot

How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration when choosing wallet.pay?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

Does using decred.dot hurt my Google rankings?

No. Google has stated that new top-level domains carry no inherent ranking advantage or disadvantage, so decred.dot competes on the same signals as any .com. Focus your SEO effort for decred.dot on content, page speed, and backlinks rather than the extension itself.

As a donation platform, do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?

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.

What if I don't yet have a trademark for decred.dot?

You can still pursue decred.dot without a trademark by using a standard first-day pre-order rather than trademark-priority registration. A registered mark, if you have one, would let you use a TMCH SMD file for earlier access. domain.pay supports both paths at https://domain.pay/register.

For online checkout, who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

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.
