Frequently asked questions about sakana.dot
Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for a bank or credit union?
After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.
Should I register sakana.dot to protect my brand name?
Registering sakana.dot can help keep your brand sakana.dot consistent across the payments-focused .PAY namespace and reduce the chance someone else uses it. Brand owners with a TMCH SMD file can use trademark priority. Protect sakana.dot by reserving sakana.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for point-of-sale payments?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
How does trademark-priority registration work for sakana.dot?
Trademark-priority registration lets the verified owner of a mark matching sakana.dot claim sakana.dot during the registry's priority window, ahead of standard pre-orders. It requires a valid TMCH SMD file proving your trademark. Begin the priority path for sakana.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium when choosing travel.pay?
A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.
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.
