Frequently asked questions about matchmaking.dot

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for fraud prevention?

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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

When do I get charged for matchmaking.dot?

You authorize payment when you place the pre-order for matchmaking.dot, and the charge is finalized once the registration succeeds. If the matchmaking.dot pre-order fails, the attempt is refundable under our stated policy. See timing details at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How is a .PAY name different from a regular .com for loan repayments for an event ticketing business?

A .PAY name immediately signals a payment-related destination, while .com is more general. For loan repayments, that can make the URL easier to understand. Check availability and pre-order options at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. The usual registry and premium-name rules still apply.

What is the difference between standard and first-day pre-order for matchmaking.dot?

A first-day pre-order targets matchmaking.dot for the very first day of general availability, while a standard pre-order at $100 simply queues your request for matchmaking.dot whenever it opens. Both are submitted to the registry on your behalf. Compare options for matchmaking.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for online checkout?

The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.

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.
