Frequently asked questions about gcf.dot

Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars for a crypto or DeFi product?

Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.

Which comes first for gcf.dot: sunrise or general availability?

Sunrise always comes first for gcf.dot, giving trademark holders priority, followed by general availability for the public. Your phase depends on whether you hold a matching mark. domain.pay queues gcf.dot for the right one at https://domain.pay/register.

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments when choosing bank.pay?

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.

Should I secure gcf.dot in addition to my main website domain?

Yes. Your main site protects your general brand, but gcf.dot specifically protects the payment-trust layer that .PAY implies for NicNames. Holding both ensures the gcf.dot name cannot be impersonated where money changes hands. https://domain.pay/register

For online checkout, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?

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.

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.
