Frequently asked questions about artifact.dot

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.

How much does it cost to pre-order artifact.dot?

The standard pre-order for artifact.dot is $100, and per our policy a failed pre-order attempt is refundable if artifact.dot can't be secured for you. Premium labels may carry a different registry-set price shown at checkout. Begin your artifact.dot pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a .PAY domain be longer than 63 characters?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

Will artifact.dot work as a tip jar for a food truck?

A food truck can post artifact.dot so customers pay and tip from their phones without cash. The short payment-native name is easy to read off a window sticker. Reserve it at https://domain.pay/register.

How can a brand reduce confusion around payment pages for a donation platform?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

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.
