Frequently asked questions about metr.dot
Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for a crypto or DeFi product?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
Does metr.dot make my pricing or checkout page easier to find?
A clear, short address like metr.dot is easier to type, remember, and link to than a deep checkout path, which helps customers find where to pay metr.dot. You can route metr.dot to pricing or checkout directly. Reserve metr.dot at /register.
Can a fintech founder use .PAY for a branded payment page?
Yes. A fintech founder 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/.
Will domain.pay submit metr.dot automatically at launch?
Yes. Once you pre-order metr.dot, domain.pay submits the registration automatically when the relevant phase opens, so you do not have to be online at that moment. Failed attempts are refundable per policy. Set up auto-submission at https://domain.pay/register.
For payroll disbursements, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
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.
