Frequently asked questions about acte.dot

How does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work for a regional bank?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

Is there a notice system that warns me if acte.dot is being registered?

Yes. The TMCH Claims Service sends notices when someone attempts to register a name matching your recorded acte.dot mark, such as acte.dot, during the applicable period. This gives NicNames early warning, though acting first is still strongest. https://domain.pay/pricing

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for loan repayments?

If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.

Does acte.dot go through both sunrise and general availability?

The .PAY namespace runs both phases, and acte.dot is registrable in sunrise (if you hold a trademark) or in general availability (if you do not). You only participate in the phase that applies to you. domain.pay routes acte.dot accordingly at https://domain.pay/register.

Where do I start if I need brand-protection help for .PAY for marketplace payouts?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

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.
