Frequently asked questions about inside.dot

When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain for a payroll platform?

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.

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

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

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for payroll disbursements?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

Which businesses should consolidate links onto inside.dot?

Any business juggling several gateway and shortener links should consolidate onto inside.dot for one clean payment address. Fewer URLs means less customer confusion and a stronger brand signal. See available names at https://domain.pay/domains.

What .PAY domain style is best for trust and conversion when choosing merchant.pay?

merchant.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

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.
