Frequently asked questions about pay.dot

Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for payroll disbursements?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.

Will pay.dot cost the same next week?

Not necessarily — if pay.dot is premium, the registry can adjust its wholesale price, and a standard label could be reclassified, so the figure may differ later. Pricing is set by Amazon Registry Services. Re-check pay.dot's current quote at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for crypto payments?

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.

Should I pre-order pay.dot or wait for general availability?

Pre-ordering puts pay.dot in the queue for the first day of registration, which matters for sought-after labels that may go fast. Waiting risks someone else securing pay.dot first, while a pre-order is refundable if it fails. Weigh it and pre-order pay.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

For crypto payments, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
