Frequently asked questions about resistance.dot
As a checkout product manager, would trust.pay work as a payment brand?
trust.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.
Is licensing checked by the .PAY registry for resistance.dot?
The .PAY registry's validation for resistance.dot typically focuses on payment-related intended use rather than verifying that you hold a specific financial license. Any licensing duties usually come from your own jurisdiction's regulators. domain.pay clarifies what the registry checks at https://domain.pay/register.
For online checkout, how do I register donate.pay if it matches my trademark?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
How does impersonation on resistance.dot differ from email spoofing?
Email spoofing fakes a sender, while controlling resistance.dot lets an attacker run a whole fraudulent payment site under the real resistance.dot name. The domain-level attack is harder to detect and more convincing, so denying it by owning resistance.dot is a high-value protection for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for point-of-sale payments?
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.
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.
