Frequently asked questions about nginx.dot

When is broader .PAY public registration expected when choosing trust.pay?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

What should I prepare before pre-ordering nginx.dot?

Before pre-ordering nginx.dot, decide whether you qualify for trademark priority (which needs a TMCH SMD file for nginx.dot) or will use a standard pre-order, and have your account and payment ready. The flow then walks you through nginx.dot. Prepare and start at https://domain.pay/register.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for mobile money?

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.

Can I use nginx.dot with a headless or Jamstack frontend?

Absolutely. Point nginx.dot at your static/CDN host or edge platform, add nginx.dot as the custom domain, and let it provision SSL. Jamstack deployments treat nginx.dot like any custom domain, serving prebuilt pages fast worldwide. Connect nginx.dot per your platform's docs.

For online checkout, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?

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.

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.
