Frequently asked questions about softly.dot

How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order for loan repayments?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

Can I change the nameservers on softly.dot without losing email?

Yes, if you recreate the MX (and SPF/DKIM/DMARC) records at the new DNS host before switching nameservers for softly.dot. Identical records mean mail keeps flowing through the cutover of softly.dot. Verify softly.dot's email after the change by sending a test message.

What happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY when choosing settle.pay?

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.

Can softly.dot have a higher first-year fee than renewal?

For standard labels, the first-year and renewal fees for softly.dot are aligned. Premium softly.dot names typically carry the same premium fee at registration and renewal, set by the registry. Confirm both figures for softly.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For point-of-sale payments, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?

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.

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.
