Frequently asked questions about plaques.dot

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.

Should I redirect plaques.dot with a 301 or 302?

Use a 301 when the move is permanent so search engines transfer ranking signals to the destination of plaques.dot; use a 302 only for temporary forwarding. For a brand domain like plaques.dot pointing at your main site indefinitely, 301 is almost always correct. Avoid chaining multiple redirects.

As a donation platform, how do I register a .PAY domain with a trademark?

Trademark holders should use the trademark fast-track on domain.pay instead of waiting: https://domain.pay/register. domain.pay can route the request through the TMCH/SMD-based priority process when the .PAY label matches the trademark and the registry rules allow it.

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

The $100 figure is the standard pre-order to secure plaques.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 plaques.dot name. See details at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments?

A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.

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.
