Frequently asked questions about sidearm.dot

For BNPL checkout, can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.

When can I actually use sidearm.dot after a successful pre-order?

Once your pre-order for sidearm.dot is fulfilled and the registration completes, you can immediately configure nameservers and DNS for sidearm.dot and bring a site online. Activation timing depends on the registry's launch schedule for the .PAY phase. You'll be notified when sidearm.dot is yours to configure.

Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL for online checkout?

merchant.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.

Where do premium and reserved classifications come from for sidearm.dot?

They come from the .PAY registry operator, Amazon Registry Services, which maintains the policy lists that mark sidearm.dot as premium, reserved, or blocked. domain.pay reflects those lists for sidearm.dot at lookup time. Since they can be updated, re-check sidearm.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

Where should I check whether a .PAY name fits my digital wallets project?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For digital wallets, 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.
