Frequently asked questions about pruning.dot

How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain for digital wallets?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

Why does trademark-priority registration of pruning.dot require a TMCH record first?

The .PAY registry, operated by Amazon Registry Services, only grants priority to marks already validated in the Trademark Clearinghouse. Your TMCH record produces the SMD file that proves rights to the pruning.dot string in pruning.dot. Without that prior validation, NicNames has no recognised proof to grant you priority. Begin the flow at https://domain.pay/register.

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for fraud prevention?

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.

Why might pruning.dot be more expensive than a similar name?

Two similar .PAY names can differ in price because the registry classifies some pruning.dot strings as premium and others as standard $100 labels. So pruning.dot may cost more purely due to Amazon Registry Services' tiering. Compare pruning.dot against alternatives at https://domain.pay/pricing.

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for loan repayments?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through 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.
