Frequently asked questions about rect.dot
What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for mobile money?
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.
Does the TMCH charge me anything to enable an SMD for rect.dot?
The Trademark Clearinghouse sets its own fees for recording and validating your mark, independent of NicNames's registration pricing for rect.dot. NicNames's standard pre-order for rect.dot is listed at $100, separate from any TMCH costs. Plan for both when pursuing priority on rect.dot. See registrar pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.
For point-of-sale payments, what .PAY name should an event ticketing business consider?
travel.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

What disputes can affect a .PAY Sunrise name for donation payments?
