Frequently asked questions about gold.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for an insurance billing portal?
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.
Can my registrar account hold both gold.dot and other priority claims at once?
Yes. Through NicNames you can pursue trademark-priority claims on gold.dot and other matching .PAY names, each backed by its own valid SMD where the label matches the validated mark. Every claim is processed under the registry's rules. Manage your claims, starting with gold.dot, at https://domain.pay/register.
Before choosing loans.pay, how do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
Does gold.dot help distinguish official refunds from refund scams?
Yes. Refund scams imitate legitimate payment contacts, so directing customers to the official gold.dot for any refund interaction helps them tell real NicNames processes from fraud. Ownership of the gold.dot name makes that guidance credible. https://domain.pay/register
For mobile money, can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark?
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.
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.
