Frequently asked questions about technician.dot
Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing subscriptions.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.
Is sunrise mandatory to get technician.dot?
Sunrise is not mandatory for everyone; it is only the path for trademark holders to claim technician.dot early. If you have no trademark, you simply use general availability instead. domain.pay routes your technician.dot request to the correct phase at https://domain.pay/register.
For crypto payments, do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?
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.
Is technician.dot useful even if I already have a payment page?
Yes. You can keep your existing payment page and point technician.dot at it as a cleaner, more shareable front door for technician.dot. Customers get a short address while nothing about your processor changes. Add technician.dot to your stack via /register.
As a bank or credit union, can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL?
subscriptions.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
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.
