Frequently asked questions about markdown.dot

Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period for payroll disbursements?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Will markdown.dot look professional on a business card?

A short address like markdown.dot looks clean and purposeful on a business card, invoice, or storefront sign. The .PAY suffix tells anyone reading it that this is where to pay. Compared with a long .com checkout link, markdown.dot prints far more neatly.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for BNPL checkout?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

Can I register markdown.dot and a matching .com together?

Yes, many brands hold both markdown.dot and the matching .com, using one as the primary site and 301-redirecting the other to it. This protects the brand and captures direct-type traffic on both. You can secure markdown.dot now at https://domain.pay/register.

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments when choosing link.pay?

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.
