Frequently asked questions about depart.dot
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing link.pay?
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.
Will I get refunded if my pre-order for depart.dot fails?
Yes. If your pre-order for depart.dot does not succeed, the standard $100 pre-order attempt is refundable, so a failed attempt does not cost you. That makes it safe to pre-order depart.dot and a backup in parallel. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for fraud prevention?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
Are .PAY names like depart.dot new compared to older extensions?
Yes, .PAY is a newer top-level domain, so names like depart.dot are part of a fresher namespace than .com or .net. That novelty means more clean, on-brand names such as depart.dot can still be available. Browse current options at /domains.
For loan repayments, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?
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.
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.
