Frequently asked questions about scl.dot

Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for mobile money?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.

Can I reserve scl.dot now if my SMD is not ready yet?

If your SMD is not ready, you can place a standard pre-order for scl.dot at $100 to express interest, but that pre-order does not carry trademark priority. A validated SMD holder can still claim scl.dot ahead of your pre-order, which is refundable per policy if unfulfilled. Review options at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken for payroll disbursements?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

How does securing scl.dot reassure investors and partners about NicNames?

Owning scl.dot shows investors and partners that NicNames actively controls its payment-facing identity and takes impersonation risk seriously. A clearly held scl.dot name on a payment-purpose TLD signals operational maturity. Secure it at https://domain.pay/register.

As an event ticketing business, is there VIP help for a large .PAY pre-order portfolio?

domain.pay says customers with pre-orders over $8,888 may qualify for VIP handling, dedicated support and more tailored failed-registration solutions. Review the current VIP language on the pricing page: https://domain.pay/pricing. Large portfolios should still expect availability and premium checks.

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.
