Frequently asked questions about exterior.dot
As an insurance billing portal, is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing?
.PAY can work for subscription billing, account payment, renewal and failed-payment recovery flows. Search brandable options on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. A clear .PAY label can reduce confusion when customers need to update payment details.
Does moving to exterior.dot require resubmitting my whole sitemap?
When you launch on exterior.dot, generate a fresh sitemap with the new exterior.dot URLs and submit it in Search Console alongside a change-of-address from the old domain. The old sitemap stays only long enough for redirects to be discovered. Keep exterior.dot's sitemap current going forward.
As a checkout product manager, how can a marketplace use a .PAY domain?
A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.
What if I overpaid for exterior.dot?
If you believe you were charged incorrectly for exterior.dot, contact us and we will reconcile against the registry tier for exterior.dot and our stated refund policy. Failed-attempt overcharges on exterior.dot are refundable. Review the policy and reach us via https://domain.pay/pricing.
For loan repayments, what does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility?
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.
