Frequently asked questions about delegat.dot

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 when choosing tap.pay?

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 is the difference between pre-order and registration for delegat.dot?

A pre-order stages your intent to register delegat.dot and is submitted when its phase opens; the registration is the completed assignment of delegat.dot to you once the registry approves. domain.pay turns your delegat.dot pre-order into a registration at the right time. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for mobile money?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

Can search engines index delegat.dot the same as any other domain?

Yes. Crawlers discover and index delegat.dot through links, sitemaps, and direct submission exactly as they do for legacy TLDs. There's no extra hurdle to getting delegat.dot into the index — just ensure it's reachable, not blocked by robots.txt, and free of noindex tags.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for mobile money?

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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

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.
