Frequently asked questions about melon.dot

As an ecommerce brand, what does it mean if a .PAY name is premium?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

Can I register melon.dot for multiple years up front?

Multi-year terms for melon.dot depend on the registry's options for .PAY, and the available term lengths for melon.dot appear at checkout. The $100 figure covers the standard pre-order, with renewal or multi-year terms shown separately. See term options for melon.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Does .PAY have anti-abuse rules for in-app purchases?

Amazon Registry policies include abuse-prevention rules for .PAY, and registrants remain subject to applicable domain dispute and abuse procedures. For legitimate registration or pre-order, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Pair the domain with monitoring, SSL and clear customer messaging.

Is melon.dot guaranteed if I'm the only pre-order?

Being the sole pre-order improves your odds for melon.dot, but the registry's launch rules and melon.dot's classification by Amazon Registry Services still govern allocation, so it's not guaranteed. A failed attempt is refundable per policy. Pre-order melon.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for online checkout?

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.

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.
