Frequently asked questions about lafc.dot
For mobile money, is .PAY already open to everyone?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
What is the difference between defensive and active use of lafc.dot?
Defensive use means registering lafc.dot mainly to keep it away from impersonators, while active use means running your real payment flows on it. Either way, owning lafc.dot protects the lafc.dot name; many brands start defensively and activate later. https://domain.pay/register
What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for BNPL checkout?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.
Is identity verification part of getting lafc.dot?
Identity or registrant verification can be part of acquiring lafc.dot where the .PAY registry's validation calls for it. Requirements may vary by intended use and over time. domain.pay relays any verification steps so you can respond quickly; start at https://domain.pay/register.
For crypto payments, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?
.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
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.
