Frequently asked questions about optometry.dot
When should an event ticketing business pre-order a .PAY domain for mobile money?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Does moving to optometry.dot require resubmitting my whole sitemap?
When you launch on optometry.dot, generate a fresh sitemap with the new optometry.dot URLs and submit it in Search Console alongside a change-of-address from the old domain. The old sitemap stays only long enough for redirects to be discovered. Keep optometry.dot's sitemap current going forward.
Before choosing donate.pay, can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?
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.
Can I use optometry.dot for API endpoints and webhooks?
Yes. Dedicate a subdomain such as api.optometry.dot with its own DNS record and SSL, and serve your endpoints there. Using optometry.dot for APIs keeps a clean, branded base URL for integrations and webhook callbacks. Secure it with HTTPS and proper auth.
As a crypto or DeFi product, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?
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.
