Frequently asked questions about knell.dot

How do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark for crypto payments?

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.

How does knell.dot fit alongside my main .com website?

Many owners keep their main site on .com and use knell.dot purely as the payment or checkout front door. A button on the .com site links to knell.dot, which redirects to the processor. The two work together, with knell.dot handling the pay step.

What should I check technically before launching a .PAY payment site for BNPL checkout?

Before launching a .PAY payment site, verify the label, DNS, SSL, redirects, monitoring, checkout security and compliance obligations. Secure or pre-order the domain through domain.pay first: https://domain.pay/register. Treat the domain as one part of a trusted payment flow.

Can two trademark holders both claim knell.dot during priority?

More than one party may hold a valid TMCH mark for the knell.dot string, so multiple SMD-backed claims on knell.dot can arrive during the priority phase. When that happens, the registry resolves competing claims under its published rules rather than first-come alone. Each claimant still needs a valid SMD to be in contention. Start your claim at https://domain.pay/register.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP when choosing tap.pay?

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.

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.
