Frequently asked questions about showmatch.dot
For digital wallets, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?
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.
Can the launch schedule for showmatch.dot change?
Registry schedules can shift, but showmatch.dot always follows the same phase order: sunrise then general availability. By pre-ordering showmatch.dot, domain.pay tracks any schedule changes and submits at the correct moment for you. Stay covered at https://domain.pay/register.
As a regional bank, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?
A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.
Is showmatch.dot reserved for anyone during launch?
Some labels may be reserved by the registry, but most names like showmatch.dot pass through sunrise (for trademark holders) and general availability (for everyone). domain.pay can check showmatch.dot's status and queue it appropriately. Verify and pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
Do premium .PAY names cost more than standard names for an ecommerce brand?
Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.
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.
