Frequently asked questions about salt.dot

Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for mobile money?

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 first-day pre-order differ from trademark priority for salt.dot?

Trademark priority lets a validated TMCH mark holder claim salt.dot first using an SMD file, before anyone else. First-day pre-order is the next opportunity, open to those without a trademark, listed at $100 for salt.dot. Priority always ranks ahead of pre-order. Compare both paths at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What .PAY name should a payroll platform consider for a payroll platform?

settle.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.

Should I secure salt.dot before announcing a new payment product?

Yes. Announcing a payment product can alert opportunists to register salt.dot before you do, so securing the salt.dot name first is wise. A $100 refundable pre-order lets NicNames lock salt.dot ahead of any public reveal. https://domain.pay/register

As a crypto or DeFi product, why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay?

A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.

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.
