Frequently asked questions about cina.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window when choosing tap.pay?

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.

Can I see all available .PAY names before choosing cina.dot?

Yes. You can browse the .PAY namespace and compare candidates before committing to cina.dot at https://domain.pay/domains, which lists names and their current status. Once you decide on cina.dot, place your pre-order or priority request at https://domain.pay/register.

Are short .PAY names always available for mobile money?

Short .PAY names are attractive but can be registered, premium, reserved or blocked. Do not assume availability from length alone. Search at domain.pay and verify before building a campaign: https://domain.pay/domains.

How does domain.pay handle the timing of my cina.dot request?

domain.pay stages your cina.dot pre-order and submits it to the registry the instant the correct phase opens, removing the need for you to watch the clock. For trademark holders it targets sunrise; for everyone else, first-day general availability. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

For mobile money, 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.
