Frequently asked questions about caphold.dot
For crypto payments, 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.
What does the standard pre-order get me for caphold.dot?
The standard $100 pre-order places your request for caphold.dot in line through domain.pay, and if the attempt fails it is refundable. It is the path to claim caphold.dot as a .PAY name when it becomes available. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
As an ecommerce brand, would travel.pay work as a payment brand?
travel.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.
How do I know my pre-order for caphold.dot was received?
Once you submit a pre-order for caphold.dot, your domain.pay account confirms it was received and shows caphold.dot in your queued orders. You will see status changes as the registry processes caphold.dot. Confirm and view your caphold.dot pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
As a fintech founder, do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
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.
