Frequently asked questions about prototypes.dot

Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period for point-of-sale payments?

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.

Can prototypes.dot simply redirect to my existing payment processor?

Yes. Many owners point prototypes.dot as a redirect to a Stripe, PayPal, or custom checkout link, so customers see the clean prototypes.dot address while the processor handles the transaction. You keep your existing setup and gain a memorable front door. Register prototypes.dot at /register.

As a remittance app, how can a marketplace use a .PAY domain?

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.

How does a first-day pre-order beat manual registration of prototypes.dot?

A first-day pre-order has domain.pay submit prototypes.dot automatically at the exact opening of general availability, beating most manual attempts that start seconds or minutes late. It removes human reaction time from the race for prototypes.dot. Set it up at https://domain.pay/register.

How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order for fraud prevention?

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.

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.
