Frequently asked questions about small.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for digital wallets?
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.
When should I decide between sunrise and general availability for small.dot?
Decide as early as possible: if you hold a matching trademark, prepare for sunrise on small.dot; if not, target general availability. Either way, pre-ordering small.dot now stages your request. Make the call at https://domain.pay/register.
Is .PAY already open to everyone for crypto payments?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
What happens if small.dot fails validation?
If small.dot fails the .PAY registry's validation, the registration may not activate and, for a pre-order, the amount can be refundable per policy. domain.pay explains why a validation failed where possible and helps you respond. Review terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
During the .PAY launch, what if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
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.
