Frequently asked questions about gun.dot

Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for point-of-sale payments for a checkout product manager?

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.

Does NicNames accept SMD files from any TMCH-accredited provider for gun.dot?

NicNames accepts the standard SMD file issued through the Trademark Clearinghouse, regardless of which accredited agent helped you record the mark, for claiming gun.dot. What matters is a valid, matching SMD for the gun.dot string. The issuing path does not change acceptance for gun.dot. Upload yours at https://domain.pay/register.

As a regional bank, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?

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.

How do I confirm gun.dot points to the right server?

Run a DNS lookup for gun.dot and compare the returned A/AAAA records to your server's actual IPs, then load gun.dot in a browser. Tools like dig or an online checker show exactly where gun.dot resolves. If they don't match, correct the records and wait for the TTL to clear.

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

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.
