Frequently asked questions about recto.dot
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?
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.
Will browsing the catalog reveal options I'd miss searching only recto.dot?
Yes. Browsing domain.pay's curated catalog reveals options you would miss by searching only recto.dot, since it surfaces themed and adjacent payment names beyond recto.dot. Open-ended browsing complements targeted search. Browse the catalog at https://domain.pay/domains.
Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration?
.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.
Is the Trademark Clearinghouse the same as registering recto.dot directly?
No. The Trademark Clearinghouse validates your mark and issues an SMD file, but it does not register recto.dot itself. You still complete the actual registration of recto.dot through NicNames, supplying that SMD to unlock trademark priority. The two steps are separate: validate first, then register at https://domain.pay/register.
For payroll disbursements, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?
A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: 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.
