Frequently asked questions about webhosting.dot
Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for point-of-sale payments?
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.
What is HSTS and should I enable it on webhosting.dot?
HTTP Strict Transport Security tells browsers to always load webhosting.dot over HTTPS, blocking downgrade attacks. Enable it with a response header once webhosting.dot reliably serves valid SSL, and only after confirming every subresource is HTTPS. Start with a short max-age before committing webhosting.dot to a long policy.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for loan repayments for an ecommerce brand?
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.
Is a TMCH SMD file required to pre-order webhosting.dot?
No — a standard $100 pre-order for webhosting.dot doesn't require an SMD file. You only need a TMCH SMD if you want trademark priority on webhosting.dot ahead of general applicants. Choose the right path for webhosting.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period for fraud prevention?
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.
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.
