Frequently asked questions about opts.dot

Could a lookalike .PAY domain harm customer trust for rent collection?

.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.

Is the $100 pre-order for opts.dot a one-time protection cost?

The $100 figure is the standard pre-order to secure opts.dot, with failed attempts refundable; ongoing protection then depends on keeping the registration renewed. Treat the pre-order as the entry step to owning the opts.dot name. See details at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How should I check premium status before choosing a .PAY name for mobile money?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

How do I set up email on opts.dot?

To send and receive mail at opts.dot, choose a mailbox provider, then add their MX records to your DNS plus SPF, DKIM, and DMARC TXT records for deliverability. Mail won't flow until the MX records for opts.dot propagate. Manage the domain's DNS from /domains.

Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period when choosing link.pay?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

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.
