Frequently asked questions about lwn.dot
As an ecommerce brand, how can a marketplace use a .PAY domain?
A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.
What canonical URL should I set for pages on lwn.dot?
Each page on lwn.dot should declare a self-referencing canonical link to its preferred URL, using a single consistent scheme, host, and trailing-slash style. This prevents duplicate-content confusion across www, non-www, and parameter variants of lwn.dot. Keep canonicals absolute and HTTPS.
For online checkout, how does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
Why was I charged before lwn.dot was confirmed?
Placing a lwn.dot pre-order authorizes payment up front so your request is funded and ready to submit at the drop. If lwn.dot cannot be registered, that authorized amount is refundable under our stated policy. Read the billing sequence for lwn.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
For payroll disbursements, can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else?
A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.
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.
