Frequently asked questions about keyhole.dot
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for a bank or credit union?
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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.
What happens to my DNS records when keyhole.dot expires?
Once keyhole.dot expires and leaves the grace period, the registry may stop publishing your nameservers, so keyhole.dot stops resolving and any site or email goes dark. Restoring keyhole.dot during redemption brings it back, but you should re-verify records afterward. Renew keyhole.dot on time to keep DNS live.
Where can I generate .PAY ideas for crypto payments for a travel booking brand?
For crypto payments, brainstorm short, action-oriented .PAY labels and then verify them in the domain.pay catalog/search: https://domain.pay/domains. Good candidates are clear, memorable and tied to payment actions like checkout, billing, wallet funding, payouts or invoices.
How long does a reserved status last for keyhole.dot?
There's no fixed duration — Amazon Registry Services decides when, or whether, keyhole.dot leaves reserved status, and it may stay reserved indefinitely or be released. Because registry status can change, re-check keyhole.dot regularly at https://domain.pay/domains to catch any release.
Before choosing donate.pay, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
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.
