Frequently asked questions about ipv6.dot
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a fintech founder?
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.
What is the order of phases that affects ipv6.dot: priority, pre-order, general?
For ipv6.dot, trademark priority comes first for validated SMD holders, then first-day pre-order opens to others at $100, and finally general registration. Each phase narrows who has the advantage on ipv6.dot. Knowing the order helps you pick the right moment. See current phase details at https://domain.pay/.
For payroll disbursements, could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments?
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.
What TTL should I set for records on ipv6.dot?
A TTL of 3600 seconds (one hour) is a reasonable default for stable records on ipv6.dot, balancing fast updates against resolver load. Lower it to 300 before a planned migration of ipv6.dot, then raise it again once things are stable. Very low TTLs increase query volume slightly.
Where do I start if I need brand-protection help for .PAY for a crypto or DeFi product?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
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.
