Frequently asked questions about bulder.dot

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

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.

Why was my SMD rejected when claiming bulder.dot?

An SMD claim on bulder.dot can be rejected if the encoded mark does not match the bulder.dot string, the SMD has expired, or the underlying TMCH record is no longer active. NicNames validates the file before granting priority. Refresh your TMCH record and re-export a current SMD, then retry at https://domain.pay/register.

As a fintech founder, how much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Does Amazon Registry Services review my SMD for bulder.dot directly?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY registry and defines the priority rules, but you submit your SMD for bulder.dot through NicNames as your registrar. NicNames validates the SMD and passes the qualifying claim to the registry. You do not deal with Amazon Registry Services directly for bulder.dot. Register via NicNames at https://domain.pay/register.

As a remittance app, who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

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.
