Frequently asked questions about openro.pay
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for fraud prevention?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
How many people can pre-order openro.pay at once?
There is no fixed cap on how many applicants pre-order openro.pay; multiple requests for openro can exist in the queue, which is why a pre-order reserves your place rather than guaranteeing the name. Unfulfilled pre-orders are refundable per the stated policy. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
As an ecommerce brand, where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
Which DNS record type connects openro.pay to a load balancer?
Cloud load balancers are usually referenced by hostname, so you point the apex of openro.pay using an ALIAS/ANAME record (or a CNAME on a subdomain) at the balancer's DNS name. This lets the balancer's IPs change without breaking openro.pay. Your provider documents the exact target.
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for point-of-sale payments?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: 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.
