Frequently asked questions about scans.dot
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for crypto payments?
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.
What can a streamer do with scans.dot on stream?
A streamer can display scans.dot as the address viewers use to support the channel in real time. A short, spellable .PAY name works far better on an overlay than a long shortener. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
For fraud prevention, do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
How do I keep email and web on scans.dot pointed at different providers?
DNS lets you split services: MX records on scans.dot route mail to your mailbox host while A/CNAME records send web traffic to a separate web host. They operate independently, so scans.dot can use one vendor for email and another for the site. Just keep each record set correct.
Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for a bank or credit union?
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.
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.
