Frequently asked questions about selective.dot
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.
Why is selective.dot a cleaner option than a long subdomain?
A subdomain like pay.selective.dot.com adds a layer and still depends on your .com, while selective.dot is a standalone, purpose-built address. selective.dot reads as a payment destination without nesting. That makes it simpler to share and brand.
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments?
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.
Is the Trademark Clearinghouse the same as registering selective.dot directly?
No. The Trademark Clearinghouse validates your mark and issues an SMD file, but it does not register selective.dot itself. You still complete the actual registration of selective.dot through NicNames, supplying that SMD to unlock trademark priority. The two steps are separate: validate first, then register at https://domain.pay/register.
As an insurance billing portal, can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL?
cloud.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
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.
