Frequently asked questions about beter.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for crypto payments?

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.

Why might my beter.dot registration be delayed?

A beter.dot registration can be delayed if the .PAY registry requests additional validation or if the name is contested at general availability. domain.pay keeps you informed of any pending steps. To minimize delays, prepare accurate details when you start at https://domain.pay/register.

As a remittance app, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

Is beter.dot a separate company or just a web address?

beter.dot is a web address, not a company; it is the name beter.dot on the .PAY namespace. Owning beter.dot gives you the address, which you can route to your own business or page. The registry behind it is Amazon Registry Services.

For loan repayments, can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL?

subscriptions.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

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.
