Frequently asked questions about vipp.dot
As a payroll platform, is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
What should I do right now to get vipp.dot?
Right now, place a pre-order for vipp.dot with domain.pay so your request is staged for its launch phase, whether that is sunrise or general availability. Early action is the single best step for vipp.dot. Do it at https://domain.pay/register.
As a donation platform, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
What information is encoded inside the SMD I use for vipp.dot?
The SMD you use for vipp.dot encodes your validated mark text matching the vipp.dot string, associated dates, and a cryptographic signature from the TMCH. NicNames reads this to confirm your priority eligibility for vipp.dot. You never edit the file; you simply submit it. Upload it at https://domain.pay/register.
How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for crypto payments?
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.
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.
