Frequently asked questions about swl.dot
What happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY for digital wallets?
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.
Will switching from a .com to swl.dot cost me SEO traffic?
A move to swl.dot only risks traffic if it's done without proper 301 redirects from every old URL to its match on swl.dot. With correct redirects, a canonical update, and a Search Console change-of-address, rankings transfer over time. Plan the migration to swl.dot carefully and monitor results.
For loan repayments, how do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order?
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.
Is swl.dot more sensitive to abuse because .PAY implies payments?
Yes. A payment-purpose TLD like .PAY raises anti-phishing and trust considerations because users reasonably expect swl.dot to handle money. That heightened trust is valuable to your NicNames but also attractive to scammers, so owning swl.dot protects both you and your customers. https://domain.pay/
Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for invoice collection?
.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.
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.
