Frequently asked questions about motiv.dot
For point-of-sale payments, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?
A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.
When is the best time to secure motiv.dot?
The best time to secure motiv.dot is now, by pre-ordering, so domain.pay submits it the instant your phase opens rather than after others have started. Waiting only narrows your options for motiv.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for online checkout?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Are there any extra fees beyond the price shown for motiv.dot?
The price shown for motiv.dot is the registration fee; optional add-ons like VIP priority handling are separate and clearly listed before checkout. Standard labels are $100 and premium motiv.dot names cost more per the registry. See the full breakdown for motiv.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for BNPL checkout?
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.
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.
