Frequently asked questions about illustrated.dot
What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for mobile money?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
What general framing should I keep in mind for illustrated.dot compliance?
For illustrated.dot, keep in mind that the .PAY registry expects payment-related, good-faith use with accurate registrant data, while any financial licensing duties stem separately from your jurisdiction's regulators. Treating these as two layers helps you stay compliant. domain.pay handles the registry side at https://domain.pay/register.
How do I register a .PAY domain with a trademark when choosing brand.pay?
Trademark holders should use the trademark fast-track on domain.pay instead of waiting: https://domain.pay/register. domain.pay can route the request through the TMCH/SMD-based priority process when the .PAY label matches the trademark and the registry rules allow it.
Does illustrated.dot make my pricing or checkout page easier to find?
A clear, short address like illustrated.dot is easier to type, remember, and link to than a deep checkout path, which helps customers find where to pay illustrated.dot. You can route illustrated.dot to pricing or checkout directly. Reserve illustrated.dot at /register.
What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for BNPL checkout?
During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.
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.
