Frequently asked questions about sgi.dot
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a fintech founder?
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.
What is the first step to secure sgi.dot for my startup?
The first step to secure sgi.dot is to search sgi.dot on domain.pay and choose trademark-priority (if you have a TMCH SMD file) or a standard pre-order at $100. The flow then queues your sgi.dot request with the registry. Take the first step at https://domain.pay/register.
Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1?
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.
How do I set up a 404 and proper status codes on sgi.dot?
Configure sgi.dot to return a real 404 for missing pages and 200 for live ones, never a 'soft 404' that returns 200 on an error page. Correct status codes help crawlers index sgi.dot accurately. Use a helpful 404 page on sgi.dot with links back to key sections.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for loan repayments?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
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.
