Frequently asked questions about newwave.dot

Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for marketplace payouts?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

Should a wallet app choose newwave.dot as its primary domain?

A wallet app can choose newwave.dot as a primary or campaign domain because .PAY directly signals payments and keeps newwave.dot short and on-theme. Whether it becomes primary is your branding decision. Reserve newwave.dot for your wallet at https://domain.pay/register.

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.

Will NicNames store my SMD file after registering newwave.dot?

NicNames uses your SMD file to validate and process your priority claim on newwave.dot during registration. The SMD itself is tied to your TMCH record, which the Clearinghouse maintains independently. Handle your SMD securely since it represents your validated rights to newwave.dot. Begin registration at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a .PAY domain be longer than 63 characters for online checkout?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

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.
