Frequently asked questions about dwelling.dot

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for online checkout?

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.

What does it mean that .PAY is a top-level domain for dwelling.dot?

A top-level domain is the final segment of an address, so in dwelling.dot the .PAY is the TLD that sits at the root of the DNS hierarchy. It is on the same level as .com or .org. That makes dwelling.dot a fully standard, globally routable name.

How do I know if merchant.pay is available for a donation platform?

Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.

What is a registrar lock and should dwelling.dot have one?

A registrar (transfer) lock prevents dwelling.dot from being moved without your explicit approval, guarding against hijacking. Keep dwelling.dot locked except during a deliberate transfer. You can toggle the lock for dwelling.dot in your account's domain settings.

Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order for a crypto or DeFi product?

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.

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.
