Frequently asked questions about metrica.dot

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a donation platform?

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.

How do I set up a www and non-www version of metrica.dot?

Create a CNAME (or matching A record) for www.metrica.dot alongside the apex, then pick one canonical version and 301-redirect the other. Consistency tells search engines which form of metrica.dot to index and avoids duplicate-content dilution. Decide canonical before launch.

Is there a cash refund option for a failed .PAY pre-order when choosing wallet.pay?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

How early should I prepare my SMD relative to the metrica.dot priority phase?

Prepare your SMD well before the metrica.dot priority phase, since TMCH validation takes time you do not control. Having a valid SMD ready means you can submit the moment priority opens for metrica.dot. Late preparation risks missing the window. Get set up and register at https://domain.pay/register.

As a checkout product manager, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

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.
