Frequently asked questions about schoolshoes.dot

Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for point-of-sale payments?

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.

Can the same label be available as schoolshoes.dot but taken elsewhere?

Yes — schoolshoes.dot can be free under .PAY as schoolshoes.dot even if it's registered under other extensions, because each registry, including Amazon Registry Services for .PAY, manages its own namespace. Availability for schoolshoes.dot is independent of other TLDs. Check schoolshoes.dot specifically at https://domain.pay/domains.

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for loan repayments?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

When can a trademark holder claim schoolshoes.dot ahead of the general public?

Trademark holders can claim schoolshoes.dot during the priority phase, which runs before standard availability opens to everyone. You must hold a valid TMCH SMD covering the schoolshoes.dot string at the time you submit. After the priority phase closes, schoolshoes.dot moves to first-day pre-order and then general registration. See timing at https://domain.pay/.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for digital wallets?

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.

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.
