Frequently asked questions about watering.dot
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for online checkout?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
What happens if I let watering.dot expire after registering it?
If watering.dot lapses, it can be re-registered by someone else, reopening the impersonation risk you closed. Keep watering.dot renewed so the watering.dot name stays continuously under NicNames's control. Manage your registration at https://domain.pay/.
For point-of-sale payments, how should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing?
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.
Can I delegate management of watering.dot while keeping ownership?
Yes. NicNames can delegate operational management of watering.dot to a team or partner while retaining registrant ownership, which keeps control of the watering.dot name internal. Clear ownership records reduce disputes later. Manage settings at https://domain.pay/.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for crypto payments 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.
