Frequently asked questions about stateside.dot

How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for donation payments?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

How do I fix a redirect loop on stateside.dot?

A loop on stateside.dot usually comes from conflicting HTTP-to-HTTPS or www rules firing against each other. Trace the chain with a redirect checker, then ensure exactly one rule sends traffic to the canonical version of stateside.dot. Remove duplicate redirects at the CDN, server, and app layers.

For mobile money, is .PAY already open to everyone?

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 to my fee if stateside.dot is allocated to a priority claimant?

If a trademark priority claimant is allocated stateside.dot, your standard pre-order for stateside.dot cannot be fulfilled and the fee is refundable per the stated policy. Priority claims are processed ahead of standard pre-orders by registry rules. Pre-order stateside.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

For crypto 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.
