Frequently asked questions about custodial.dot
As a regional bank, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?
A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.
Why does the custodial.dot exact match matter more than variations for custodial.dot?
The exact custodial.dot match in custodial.dot is what customers naturally type and trust when paying NicNames, making it the highest-impact target for impersonation. Securing the exact custodial.dot first delivers the most protection per dollar. https://domain.pay/register
As a mobile wallet team, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
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.
What is first-day pre-order for custodial.dot?
First-day pre-order lets you request custodial.dot for the opening day of general availability, so your application is ready the moment custodial.dot becomes registrable. It is offered alongside standard pre-order on domain.pay. Set up first-day pre-order for custodial.dot at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for BNPL checkout?
Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.
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.
