Frequently asked questions about shortselling.dot

Why are payment brands talking about .PAY as a startup?

For payroll disbursements, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

Why might NicNames ask me to re-export my SMD for shortselling.dot?

NicNames may ask you to re-export your SMD for shortselling.dot if the submitted file is expired, malformed, or no longer matches your active TMCH record. A fresh export from the Clearinghouse resolves these issues for shortselling.dot. Re-download the current .smd and retry at https://domain.pay/register.

As a bank or credit union, 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. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

What currency is shortselling.dot priced in?

The listed $100 standard rate and any premium shortselling.dot fee for shortselling.dot are quoted in US dollars, with your local total and taxes shown at checkout. Conversion is handled by your payment provider. Confirm the displayed currency for shortselling.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What is a .PAY domain and why does it matter for loan repayments?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For loan repayments, it can make the payment purpose of a URL clearer than a generic address. Check or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay handles the customer path for trademark-priority registration or first-day pre-order attempts.

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.
