Frequently asked questions about afco.dot
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing bank.pay?
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 afco.dot help reduce checkout abandonment?
Unfamiliar payment URLs are a known abandonment trigger, and afco.dot replaces them with a recognizable, brand-aligned address. Seeing a .PAY name at checkout can reassure shoppers and keep them moving. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.
For point-of-sale payments, when should an event ticketing business pre-order a .PAY domain?
Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Is afco.dot suitable for a remittance service?
afco.dot suits a remittance or money-transfer service, as cross-border payments fit squarely within the .PAY namespace's theme. The registry typically validates such payment-related use. Operating remittance may carry separate licensing under local law. domain.pay can register afco.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
For online checkout, is .PAY a good fit for subscription billing?
.PAY can work for subscription billing, account payment, renewal and failed-payment recovery flows. Search brandable options on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. A clear .PAY label can reduce confusion when customers need to update payment details.
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.
