Frequently asked questions about prison.dot
Where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check for loan repayments?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
How do I move prison.dot to a different nameserver or DNS host?
To switch DNS hosts for prison.dot, recreate your existing records at the new provider first, then update the nameservers for prison.dot at the registrar to the new ones. Keeping the zone identical avoids downtime during the cutover. Edit nameservers for prison.dot from /domains.
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for a travel booking brand?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
Can I change my mind after pre-ordering prison.dot?
Because a pre-order for prison.dot is only fulfilled if the registration succeeds, and failed attempts are refundable per policy, you are not locked into a name you never receive. Review the refund and cancellation terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for online checkout?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
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.
