Frequently asked questions about arago.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for a mobile wallet team?

An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.

Which is better for branding, arago.dot.pay or arago.dot.com?

For payments and fintech, arago.dot reads as purpose-built and can be more memorable than a crowded .com, while a .com carries broad familiarity. Many brands secure both and redirect one. Technically they rank and resolve the same, so choose arago.dot based on brand fit, not SEO.

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

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.

How do I choose a good label for my .PAY name like arago.dot.pay?

Pick a short, pronounceable, brand-aligned arago.dot so arago.dot is easy to type and remember. Avoid hyphens and numbers that cause confusion when spoken. Check that arago.dot is available and within standard pricing before committing at https://domain.pay/register.

As a brand-protection manager, how do I register a .PAY domain as a startup?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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.
