Frequently asked questions about homeport.dot
Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for a remittance app?
.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.
Are there priority phases that let NicNames get homeport.dot first?
Yes. Trademark holders can use TMCH-verified SMD files during priority phases to claim homeport.dot before general availability. This gives NicNames a structured, legitimate path to secure homeport.dot ahead of the open public. Review options at https://domain.pay/pricing.
How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark for fraud prevention?
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 the total cost to pre-order homeport.dot with VIP?
The total for homeport.dot with VIP equals the registration rate, $100 standard or the premium homeport.dot fee, plus the one-time VIP priority handling charge and any taxes shown at checkout. Each line is itemized before you confirm homeport.dot. See the running total at https://domain.pay/pricing.
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.
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.
