Frequently asked questions about use.dot
As a mobile wallet team, when does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Will use.dot stay $100 forever?
The $100 standard rate for use.dot is the current listed price, but Amazon Registry Services can adjust standard or premium tiers over time, which would affect future renewals of use.dot. We always show the live rate before you commit. Check today's price for use.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for loan repayments?
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.
Should a hotel use use.dot for room deposits?
A hotel can collect reservation deposits and incidental charges on use.dot, giving guests one trusted payment address. The .PAY name on a confirmation email reassures travelers paying in advance. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain when choosing merchant.pay?
A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.
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.
