Frequently asked questions about usar.dot
Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for BNPL checkout?
After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.
Will usar.dot ever become available if it's reserved today?
Possibly — registry-reserved labels can be released into general availability when Amazon Registry Services updates its policies, but there's no guaranteed date. The safest approach is to monitor usar.dot and re-check its status regularly, since registry status can change. Track usar.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments when choosing link.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.
Why is .PAY launching in phases at all for usar.dot?
New gTLDs like .PAY launch in phases to protect trademark owners first (sunrise) before opening names like usar.dot to the general public (general availability). This staged rollout is an ICANN-standard process. Learn how to position for usar.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for point-of-sale payments?
After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.
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.
