Frequently asked questions about citywire.dot

Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing merchant.pay?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Should I redirect citywire.dot with a 301 or 302?

Use a 301 when the move is permanent so search engines transfer ranking signals to the destination of citywire.dot; use a 302 only for temporary forwarding. For a brand domain like citywire.dot pointing at your main site indefinitely, 301 is almost always correct. Avoid chaining multiple redirects.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders when choosing loans.pay?

.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.

Will I be told why citywire.dot validation failed?

Where possible, domain.pay relays the .PAY registry's reason if citywire.dot validation fails, so you can correct details or respond. Some registry decisions may include limited detail. If a pre-order attempt fails, it is refundable per policy; see https://domain.pay/pricing.

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for payroll disbursements?

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.

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.
