Frequently asked questions about affiliation.dot

How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration for a crypto or DeFi product?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

How long does TMCH validation take before I can register affiliation.dot?

TMCH validation timing depends on the Clearinghouse, not on NicNames, so begin the process well before you intend to claim affiliation.dot. Only after validation completes do you receive the SMD file needed for priority on affiliation.dot. Plan ahead so your SMD is ready when the priority phase opens. Prepare your registration at https://domain.pay/register.

As an ecommerce brand, how can a marketplace use a .PAY domain?

A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.

Can I register affiliation.dot on launch day myself?

You can attempt affiliation.dot manually on the first day of general availability, but that means competing live with everyone else. A pre-order lets domain.pay submit affiliation.dot automatically at the opening, hands-free. Choose the easier route at https://domain.pay/register.

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium when choosing travel.pay?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

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.
