Frequently asked questions about hongqi.dot

Is .PAY a new domain option for bank or credit unions for payroll disbursements?

.PAY is a new gTLD for payment, checkout, billing and fintech-style use cases. domain.pay is the place to search, pre-order or begin a trademark route: https://domain.pay/. Check the name before using it in campaigns.

Can I pre-order hongqi.dot now and pay the premium fee later?

Placing a hongqi.dot pre-order authorizes the applicable fee up front, including a premium fee if the registry has tiered hongqi.dot that way, so payment is not deferred. A failed hongqi.dot attempt is refundable under our stated policy. Start at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for online checkout?
