Frequently asked questions about setups.dot

For fraud prevention, when does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What MX priority values should I use for setups.dot?

Set the lowest number on your primary mail server's MX for setups.dot since lower priority is preferred, and use higher numbers for backups. Most providers give you the exact host and priority to enter for setups.dot. Mismatched priorities can misroute mail for setups.dot, so copy them precisely.

What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for mobile money?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

Can I look up several names including setups.dot at once?

Yes — you can search setups.dot and related names together, and the tool returns the registry status for setups.dot and each alternative side by side. It's the fastest way to compare options. Start your multi-name lookup including setups.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for online checkout?

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.
