Frequently asked questions about kahana.dot

For BNPL checkout, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?

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.

How does demand affect timing for kahana.dot?

High demand for short, brandable payment names means kahana.dot could attract several requests, so acting during the earliest applicable phase and pre-ordering improves your odds. domain.pay queues kahana.dot as early as possible. Get ahead at https://domain.pay/register.

Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names for mobile money?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

How do I make sure my SMD matches the exact label in kahana.dot?

Open your TMCH record to see the validated mark text, then compare it against the kahana.dot string in kahana.dot character by character before submitting. NicNames only grants priority when the SMD-encoded mark matches that label for kahana.dot. A mismatch routes you to standard pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can I move a .PAY domain between registrars for a payroll platform?

Transfers may be subject to registry, registrar and phase-specific rules, especially for LRP names. Start with domain.pay for the registration path and confirm eligibility before any transfer plan: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
