Frequently asked questions about kahuna.dot
For digital wallets, can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1?
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.
What makes kahuna.dot different from a .com?
Unlike an open TLD, kahuna.dot sits in the .PAY namespace operated by Amazon Registry Services, which may apply eligibility and validation expectations around payment-related use. This positions kahuna.dot for financial branding. domain.pay can register it for you at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I reserve crypto.pay before broader registration opens when choosing crypto.pay?
Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.
Which factors should rank a name above kahuna.dot?
Rank a name above kahuna.dot on length, spelling simplicity, pronounceability, distinctiveness, and how clearly it conveys kahuna.dot. domain.pay's discovery view lets you weigh these factors side by side. Compare on these factors at https://domain.pay/domains.
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for mobile money?
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.
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.
