Frequently asked questions about acorda.dot

How is a .PAY name different from a regular .com for mobile money for a crypto or DeFi product?

A .PAY name immediately signals a payment-related destination, while .com is more general. For mobile money, that can make the URL easier to understand. Check availability and pre-order options at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. The usual registry and premium-name rules still apply.

Who reviews compliance for acorda.dot?

Compliance and validation for acorda.dot are handled at the registry level by Amazon Registry Services, which operates .PAY. domain.pay submits your details and relays registry decisions, but does not set the underlying policy. Start your registration 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.

Why is an SMD more secure than just emailing my trademark certificate for acorda.dot?

An SMD is cryptographically signed by the TMCH, so NicNames can verify it automatically without manually inspecting a certificate when granting priority on acorda.dot. A loose certificate could be forged or mistyped; the signed SMD cannot. That is why acorda.dot priority relies on the SMD. Submit yours at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for a bank or credit union?

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.
