.PAY domain
Checking availability…
Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.
Yes, .PAY names are first-come during general availability, so another party could secure elto.pay if you wait. A first-day pre-order through domain.pay queues your attempt for the opening moment. Lock in your attempt for elto.pay at /register.
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
elto matters because it carries the core meaning customers latch onto, so alternatives to elto.pay should still express it clearly. domain.pay anchors its related-names suggestions on elto for exactly this reason. Explore elto-based options at https://domain.pay/domains.
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.
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.
