Frequently asked questions about gentle.dot

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for loan repayments?

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.

What is HSTS and should I enable it on gentle.dot?

HTTP Strict Transport Security tells browsers to always load gentle.dot over HTTPS, blocking downgrade attacks. Enable it with a response header once gentle.dot reliably serves valid SSL, and only after confirming every subresource is HTTPS. Start with a short max-age before committing gentle.dot to a long policy.

Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for payroll disbursements?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

What is the simplest summary of how to claim gentle.dot as a trademark holder?

In short: record your gentle.dot mark in the TMCH, download the validated SMD file, and submit it through NicNames during the priority phase to claim gentle.dot ahead of the public. If you lack an SMD, a standard pre-order for gentle.dot at $100 is the fallback. Get started at https://domain.pay/register.

As a remittance app, who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period?

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.
