Frequently asked questions about cleansed.dot

Where can I see already-registered .PAY domains when choosing merchant.pay?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

Where do I get the SMD file needed to secure cleansed.dot?

You obtain the SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse after your trademark is recorded and validated there. Once issued, you download the .smd file and bring it to NicNames to claim cleansed.dot under priority. NicNames does not issue SMD files itself. Start your priority registration of cleansed.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Is registering .PAY a replacement for trademark monitoring for rent collection?

No. Registering .PAY is not a replacement for trademark monitoring, takedowns or fraud controls. It can still reduce customer confusion around your official payment destination. Start by checking key names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Is a TMCH SMD file required to pre-order cleansed.dot?

No — a standard $100 pre-order for cleansed.dot doesn't require an SMD file. You only need a TMCH SMD if you want trademark priority on cleansed.dot ahead of general applicants. Choose the right path for cleansed.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What happens to my money if the .PAY registration attempt fails for BNPL checkout?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

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.
