Frequently asked questions about aqo.pay

Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for BNPL checkout?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

How does impersonation on aqo.pay differ from email spoofing?

Email spoofing fakes a sender, while controlling aqo.pay lets an attacker run a whole fraudulent payment site under the real aqo name. The domain-level attack is harder to detect and more convincing, so denying it by owning aqo.pay is a high-value protection for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register

When is broader .PAY public registration expected when choosing trust.pay?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Will I get a refund if my SMD claim on aqo.pay cannot be completed?

If a charge is taken and your attempt to secure aqo.pay cannot be completed, it is refundable per the published policy at NicNames. This protects you from paying for a name you do not ultimately receive. Trademark-priority claims still depend on a valid SMD being accepted. Review the refund policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for payroll disbursements?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
