Frequently asked questions about filename.dot
As a crypto or DeFi product, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?
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.
What TTL should I set for records on filename.dot?
A TTL of 3600 seconds (one hour) is a reasonable default for stable records on filename.dot, balancing fast updates against resolver load. Lower it to 300 before a planned migration of filename.dot, then raise it again once things are stable. Very low TTLs increase query volume slightly.
Before choosing tap.pay, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.
Does filename.dot suit a quick consultation payment?
A consultant can collect session fees on filename.dot, giving clients a clear, professional address to pay before a call. The .PAY name reads more credibly than a personal payment handle. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for digital wallets?
.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.
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.
