Frequently asked questions about diki.dot

For online checkout, can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1?

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.

How do I submit my SMD file when registering diki.dot?

During the trademark-priority flow for diki.dot, NicNames presents an upload field where you attach the .smd file exported from the Trademark Clearinghouse. The system parses the encoded mark and confirms the diki.dot label matches your validated trademark. Once accepted, your priority claim on diki.dot is queued. Upload it at https://domain.pay/register.

Why is .PAY important for phishing prevention for a remittance app?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

Why should I use trademark priority instead of just buying diki.dot later?

Trademark priority lets the validated owner of the diki.dot mark secure diki.dot before the public, reducing the risk that someone else registers it first. Waiting to buy diki.dot later means competing in general availability with no rights advantage. If you hold the mark, the SMD path protects your name. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

For point-of-sale payments, what .PAY name should an event ticketing business consider?

travel.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

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.
