Frequently asked questions about paste.dot
Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period for a checkout product manager?
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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.
Is VIP handling a recurring charge for paste.dot?
No, VIP priority handling is a one-time service tied to securing paste.dot at the drop, not a recurring fee. Your ongoing cost for paste.dot is the annual registration rate, $100 standard or the premium tier for paste.dot. See the VIP terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
How do I know if cloud.pay is available for a fintech founder?
Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.
Why might paste.dot require trademark validation?
paste.dot requires trademark validation only when you choose the trademark-priority path, which the registry gates behind a TMCH SMD file proving you own a mark matching paste.dot. A standard pre-order for paste.dot needs no validation. Pick the path that fits paste.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
As a brand-protection manager, can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
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.
