Frequently asked questions about economist.dot

Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for mobile money?

A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.

What compliance obligations come with economist.dot?

Holding economist.dot primarily means keeping accurate registrant data and using the name consistent with the .PAY registry's payment-related expectations. Separately, operating regulated payments may carry its own legal obligations under your jurisdiction. domain.pay outlines current registry expectations at https://domain.pay/register.

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for digital wallets?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Is economist.dot a separate company or just a web address?

economist.dot is a web address, not a company; it is the name economist.dot on the .PAY namespace. Owning economist.dot gives you the address, which you can route to your own business or page. The registry behind it is Amazon Registry Services.

Are IDN .PAY domains allowed for digital wallets?

IDN .PAY names may be possible only in supported scripts and must meet registry rules. Use domain.pay to check the exact label and punycode-style status before planning a launch: https://domain.pay/register. Availability, premium and policy restrictions still apply.

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.
