Frequently asked questions about secures.dot

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

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.

What happens after my SMD is accepted for secures.dot?

Once NicNames accepts your SMD, your trademark-priority claim on secures.dot is recorded and processed ahead of standard pre-orders. If the claim succeeds, secures.dot is registered to you; if it cannot be completed, charges are refundable per policy. Watch your confirmation and manage it from your account. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I reserve crypto.pay before broader registration opens when choosing crypto.pay?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

Will switching from a .com to secures.dot cost me SEO traffic?

A move to secures.dot only risks traffic if it's done without proper 301 redirects from every old URL to its match on secures.dot. With correct redirects, a canonical update, and a Search Console change-of-address, rankings transfer over time. Plan the migration to secures.dot carefully and monitor results.

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for point-of-sale payments?

If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.

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.
