Frequently asked questions about mastodon.dot

Can a donation platform use .PAY for a branded payment page?

Yes. A donation platform can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

Should I act on mastodon.dot before competitors enter the .PAY space?

Yes. Once peers begin claiming .PAY names, attention to the namespace rises and your mastodon.dot name becomes a more likely target. Securing mastodon.dot early with a $100 refundable pre-order keeps NicNames ahead of that wave. https://domain.pay/register

What happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY?

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.

How is mastodon.dot pricing different from a regular .com?

Unlike a typical low-cost .com, mastodon.dot is a .PAY name operated by Amazon Registry Services, with a $100 standard rate and possible premium tiers for mastodon.dot. The pricing reflects the specialized payments-focused namespace. Compare the .PAY rate for mastodon.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For loan repayments, could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments?

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.
