Frequently asked questions about squad.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments?
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.
Does squad.dot cost the same as a typical .com?
Pricing for squad.dot reflects the .PAY namespace rather than the commodity .com market, with a standard pre-order of $100 through domain.pay. Trademark-priority registration is also available. See current figures on /pricing before you commit.
What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for an ecommerce brand?
domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.
When is the best time to secure squad.dot?
The best time to secure squad.dot is now, by pre-ordering, so domain.pay submits it the instant your phase opens rather than after others have started. Waiting only narrows your options for squad.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
What happens around February 1, 2027 for .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.
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.
