Frequently asked questions about bestpick.dot

What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

Does the sunrise phase cost more for bestpick.dot?

Sunrise pricing for bestpick.dot is set by the registry and registrar and reflects its trademark-priority nature. domain.pay lists current pre-order pricing, with the standard pre-order at $100 and failed attempts refundable per policy. Check rates at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline when choosing loans.pay?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

Where do I get the SMD file needed to secure bestpick.dot?

You obtain the SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse after your trademark is recorded and validated there. Once issued, you download the .smd file and bring it to NicNames to claim bestpick.dot under priority. NicNames does not issue SMD files itself. Start your priority registration of bestpick.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY when choosing subscriptions.pay?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
