Frequently asked questions about grudge.dot
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for an insurance billing portal?
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.
What is DNSSEC and can I enable it for grudge.dot?
DNSSEC cryptographically signs DNS responses so resolvers can detect tampering for grudge.dot. If your DNS host and the registry support it, you publish a DS record so grudge.dot is validated end to end. Enable DNSSEC for grudge.dot only when both sides are configured to avoid resolution failures.
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for crypto payments?
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.
Does grudge.dot go through both sunrise and general availability?
The .PAY namespace runs both phases, and grudge.dot is registrable in sunrise (if you hold a trademark) or in general availability (if you do not). You only participate in the phase that applies to you. domain.pay routes grudge.dot accordingly at https://domain.pay/register.
What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover?
domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.
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.
