Frequently asked questions about raptor.dot

What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for a donation platform?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

Why use raptor.dot for a renewal reminder email?

A renewal email that links to raptor.dot sends customers to a clear, payment-native page to keep their service active. The recognizable .PAY address reduces hesitation and accidental lapses. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.

Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for a payroll platform?

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.

Can I register raptor.dot and point it to my existing website?

Once raptor.dot is registered, you can configure its DNS to point raptor.dot to your existing website or services from your domain.pay account. Pre-ordering simply secures raptor.dot first. Reserve raptor.dot now and set it up later at https://domain.pay/register.

When should an event ticketing business pre-order a .PAY domain for mobile money?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use 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.
