Frequently asked questions about kaff.dot
How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for a travel booking brand?
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.
Why might NicNames ask me to re-export my SMD for kaff.dot?
NicNames may ask you to re-export your SMD for kaff.dot if the submitted file is expired, malformed, or no longer matches your active TMCH record. A fresh export from the Clearinghouse resolves these issues for kaff.dot. Re-download the current .smd and retry at https://domain.pay/register.
Would travel.pay work as a payment brand for mobile money?
travel.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.
Why do I need a TMCH SMD file to claim kaff.dot?
A TMCH SMD file is the Trademark Clearinghouse's signed proof that you own a mark matching kaff.dot, and the registry requires it to grant trademark-priority on kaff.dot. Without it, you can still use a standard pre-order for kaff.dot. Start either path at https://domain.pay/register.
How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for crypto payments?
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.
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.
