Frequently asked questions about forton.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for mobile money?

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.

How does forton.dot support a Buy Now Pay Later offer?

A BNPL flow asks customers to commit to payments, so hosting it on forton.dot frames the decision around paying. The clear .PAY address can make installment sign-ups feel more legitimate. Reserve the name at https://domain.pay/register.

How do I know if merchant.pay is available for online checkout?

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.

Should every page on forton.dot be served over HTTPS?

Yes. Serve all of forton.dot over HTTPS and redirect any HTTP request, since mixed or plain-HTTP pages trigger browser warnings and can hurt trust. Modern SEO and security baselines expect forton.dot to be fully encrypted. Add HSTS once forton.dot is reliably HTTPS-only.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 when choosing loans.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.

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.
