Frequently asked questions about scanme.dot

How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for a regional bank?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

How far in advance can I pre-order scanme.dot?

You can pre-order scanme.dot as soon as domain.pay opens the listing, well ahead of the launch phase, which is ideal for securing queue position. There is no advantage to waiting. Pre-order scanme.dot now at https://domain.pay/register.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for payroll disbursements?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

How does owning scanme.dot reduce phishing risk for the NicNames name?

When NicNames owns scanme.dot, bad actors cannot register the scanme.dot name and pass it off as your official payment page. Because .PAY signals payment intent, an impersonating scanme.dot address is especially convincing to victims, so holding the real one removes that vector. Lock it down at https://domain.pay/register.

For crypto payments, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?

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.

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.
