Frequently asked questions about blackflag.dot
Can I reserve payroll.pay before broader registration opens for a bank or credit union?
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.
Why does blackflag.dot require a TMCH file for early registration?
Early, trademark-priority registration of blackflag.dot protects rights holders, so the registry requires a TMCH SMD file proving you own a mark matching blackflag.dot. General availability for blackflag.dot has no such requirement, only the applicable fee. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
How do I register a .PAY domain with a trademark when choosing brand.pay?
Trademark holders should use the trademark fast-track on domain.pay instead of waiting: https://domain.pay/register. domain.pay can route the request through the TMCH/SMD-based priority process when the .PAY label matches the trademark and the registry rules allow it.
What should I prepare before applying for blackflag.dot?
Before applying for blackflag.dot, prepare accurate registrant contact details, a clear description of your payment-related use, and, if you hold a registered mark, your TMCH SMD file for trademark priority. domain.pay walks you through the checklist; start at https://domain.pay/register.
For loan repayments, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
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.
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.
