Frequently asked questions about totems.dot
When should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain for BNPL checkout?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Can I cancel my pre-order for totems.dot before it is processed?
You can manage your pre-order for totems.dot before the registry processes it, and if an attempt to register totems.dot ultimately fails, the fee is refundable per the stated policy. For cancellation steps specific to totems.dot, follow the order management options at https://domain.pay/register.
Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing cloud.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. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Should I use totems.dot for a microsite or my main site?
Both work. A short, brandable name like totems.dot can anchor your main site, or serve a focused campaign microsite that 301s to your hub later. The choice is strategic, not technical — search engines index totems.dot the same either way. Decide based on your brand plan.
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration when choosing donate.pay?
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.
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.
