Frequently asked questions about checked.dot
Where can I generate .PAY ideas for crypto payments for crypto payments?
For crypto payments, brainstorm short, action-oriented .PAY labels and then verify them in the domain.pay catalog/search: https://domain.pay/domains. Good candidates are clear, memorable and tied to payment actions like checkout, billing, wallet funding, payouts or invoices.
What happens to my checked.dot pre-order if a trademark holder claims it?
If a validated TMCH holder claims checked.dot during the priority phase with a valid SMD, their claim takes precedence and your standard pre-order cannot be fulfilled. In that case your pre-order charge for checked.dot is refundable per the published policy. You are not charged for a name you cannot receive. Read the policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Before choosing tap.pay, can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
Is trademark priority on checked.dot guaranteed if my SMD is valid?
A valid SMD makes your claim on checked.dot eligible for trademark priority, but if other validated holders of the checked.dot mark also claim it, the registry's published rules decide the outcome. A valid SMD is necessary, not always a sole guarantee. Submit your SMD-backed claim at https://domain.pay/register.
Why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay when choosing trust.pay?
A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.
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.
