.PAY domain
Checking availability…
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.
No, VIP priority handling is a one-time service tied to securing a18-66.pay at the drop, not a recurring fee. Your ongoing cost for a18-66.pay is the annual registration rate, $100 standard or the premium tier for a18-66. See the VIP terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.
Owning the genuine a18-66.pay strengthens your position when requesting takedowns of impersonating sites, since you can point to the real a18-66 address controlled by NicNames. It supports, but does not replace, formal abuse and dispute channels. https://domain.pay/
subscriptions.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.
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.
