Frequently asked questions about references.dot

What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for fraud prevention for fraud prevention?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

Who handles my VIP request for references.dot?

Our priority operations team handles VIP requests, advancing references.dot in the submission queue so it reaches Amazon Registry Services as fast as possible at the drop. They cannot override the registry's final allocation of references.dot. Learn about VIP at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain for online checkout?

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.

Will references.dot cost the same next week?

Not necessarily — if references.dot is premium, the registry can adjust its wholesale price, and a standard label could be reclassified, so the figure may differ later. Pricing is set by Amazon Registry Services. Re-check references.dot's current quote at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments for point-of-sale payments?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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.
