Frequently asked questions about rotation.dot
As a mobile wallet team, when does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
How does impersonation on rotation.dot differ from email spoofing?
Email spoofing fakes a sender, while controlling rotation.dot lets an attacker run a whole fraudulent payment site under the real rotation.dot name. The domain-level attack is harder to detect and more convincing, so denying it by owning rotation.dot is a high-value protection for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain 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.
How does rotation.dot support compliance and trust audits?
Demonstrating that NicNames owns the official rotation.dot payment name helps satisfy auditors and partners who expect you to control your payment-facing domains. Owning rotation.dot provides clear evidence of that control. https://domain.pay/
For payroll disbursements, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.
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.
