Frequently asked questions about webhoster.dot

As a bank or credit union, does .PAY require payment-related use after registration?

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.

Where do I start a priority pre-order for webhoster.dot?

You can start a priority pre-order for webhoster.dot from its registration page, where you add VIP handling and, if eligible, supply a TMCH SMD file for the trademark phase. The applicable $100 standard or premium webhoster.dot fee is shown before you confirm webhoster.dot. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility for point-of-sale payments?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

What if I miss the general availability opening for webhoster.dot?

If you miss the opening, webhoster.dot may already be taken by a faster registrant. A pre-order avoids this by having domain.pay submit webhoster.dot automatically at the opening, so you cannot miss it. Set it up at https://domain.pay/register.

As a checkout product manager, how can a marketplace use a .PAY domain?

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.
