Frequently asked questions about sparse.dot

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for fraud prevention?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Why explore the catalog instead of fixating on sparse.dot?

Exploring domain.pay's catalog instead of fixating on sparse.dot can reveal a clearer or shorter payment name than your first sparse.dot idea. Open browsing often surfaces a better fit you hadn't considered. Explore the catalog at https://domain.pay/domains.

Can I renew a .PAY domain after registration for mobile money?

.PAY names can be renewed through the registrar path if registry and registrar rules are met and renewal fees are paid. domain.pay explains the customer registration route here: https://domain.pay/register. Keep contact details current to avoid lifecycle problems.

Can an agency submit the SMD on behalf of my brand for sparse.dot?

An agency can run the NicNames registration flow for sparse.dot if it has authority and access to your valid SMD for the sparse.dot mark. The priority claim still rests on that SMD representing your validated rights. Make sure the agency uses the correct file for sparse.dot. Begin the process at https://domain.pay/register.

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for loan repayments?

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.

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.
