Frequently asked questions about deal.dot
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for point-of-sale payments?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
What is an SMD file and why does deal.dot need it for sunrise?
An SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is the cryptographic proof of a TMCH-validated trademark required to register deal.dot during sunrise. Without it, the registry rejects sunrise applications. domain.pay uses your SMD to submit deal.dot, as explained at https://domain.pay/register.
During the .PAY launch, can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
Can I discover deal.dot-style names for a checkout product?
Yes. domain.pay surfaces deal.dot-style names suited to a checkout product by combining deal.dot with payment and transaction terms in its catalog. These themed picks fit commerce flows naturally. Discover them at https://domain.pay/domains.
Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for BNPL checkout?
After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.
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.
