Frequently asked questions about alexico.pay

As a fintech founder, what does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility?

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.

Why does the .PAY launch protect trademarks first for alexico.pay?

The launch protects trademarks first because ICANN's framework reserves the sunrise phase for brand owners, letting them claim alexico.pay before the public to prevent infringement. General availability follows for everyone else. Position for alexico.pay at https://domain.pay/register.

How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for a regional bank?

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.

How do I avoid losing alexico.pay to a different trademark holder?

To reduce the risk of losing alexico.pay, record your alexico mark in the TMCH and submit your SMD as soon as the priority phase opens. If another validated holder also claims alexico.pay, the registry's rules decide, so acting promptly matters. Prepare your SMD-backed claim at https://domain.pay/register.

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for point-of-sale payments?
