Frequently asked questions about couples.dot

Where can I see the exact .PAY premium price for link.pay for fraud prevention?

Premium .PAY names can carry additional registry retail fees set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay says premium retail can vary by tier, so check the exact label before paying: https://domain.pay/pricing. The pre-order or fast-track fee does not make a premium name standard-priced.

How do I compare couples.dot to two or three finalists?

To compare couples.dot to a few finalists, line them up in domain.pay's discovery view and judge length, clarity, and how naturally each says couples.dot out loud. Reading them aloud quickly reveals the strongest candidate. Compare finalists at https://domain.pay/domains.

For loan repayments, 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.

Where do I get the SMD file needed to secure couples.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 couples.dot under priority. NicNames does not issue SMD files itself. Start your priority registration of couples.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

As an ecommerce brand, who qualifies for a .PAY domain in the Limited Registration Period?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

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.
