Frequently asked questions about refreshing-website.pay
For payroll disbursements, when is the .PAY Sunrise period?
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.
Does refreshing-website.pay availability depend on the launch timeline?
Yes — before general availability, refreshing-website.pay can only be pre-ordered, and reserved or blocked labels stay closed regardless of timeline. Amazon Registry Services controls the schedule. Check where refreshing-website.pay stands in the timeline at https://domain.pay/domains.
How should a regulated fintech think about .PAY and financial licensing for online checkout?
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.
What is the .PAY namespace and how does refreshing-website.pay fit it?
The .PAY namespace is a top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services and oriented around payment services, so refreshing-website.pay fits naturally for a fintech, checkout, or wallet brand. Registering refreshing-website aligns your address with that theme. Reserve refreshing-website.pay at https://domain.pay/register.
How do I register loans.pay if it matches my trademark when choosing loans.pay?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
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.
