Frequently asked questions about stare.dot
Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can a remittance app get one for BNPL checkout?
Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A remittance app can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.
When is the best time to secure stare.dot?
The best time to secure stare.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 stare.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
When is broader .PAY public registration expected for payroll disbursements?
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 I register stare.dot and pay over installments?
Registration of stare.dot is charged as a single annual payment at the $100 standard or premium stare.dot rate; installment billing is not part of the registry model. Any third-party financing would be through your payment provider. See the stare.dot payment terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can a donation platform use .PAY for a branded payment page for loan repayments?
Yes. A donation platform can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.
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.
