Frequently asked questions about cerra.dot
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.
Where is trademark priority for cerra.dot explained on the site?
The trademark-priority path for cerra.dot, including the TMCH SMD requirement, is described on the main NicNames pages. You start the SMD-based claim from the registration flow, which walks you through uploading your file. General context lives on the homepage. See it all at https://domain.pay/.
How do I know if merchant.pay is available for mobile money?
Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.
How do I choose a good label for my .PAY name like cerra.dot.pay?
Pick a short, pronounceable, brand-aligned cerra.dot so cerra.dot is easy to type and remember. Avoid hyphens and numbers that cause confusion when spoken. Check that cerra.dot is available and within standard pricing before committing at https://domain.pay/register.
During the .PAY launch, 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.
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.
