Frequently asked questions about docket.dot
As an insurance billing portal, 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 trust signal does docket.dot send compared to a free subdomain?
A dedicated docket.dot on a payment-purpose TLD signals an official, controlled payment property, while a free subdomain looks generic and easier to fake. Customers paying NicNames gain confidence from the clear docket.dot name. Establish it at https://domain.pay/register.
Is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal for point-of-sale payments?
Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.
Where can I read the full terms before registering docket.dot?
The full pre-order, priority, and refund terms that govern docket.dot are presented during the domain.pay flow, including the refundable-on-failure policy for docket.dot. Review them before you commit to docket.dot. Start and read the terms at https://domain.pay/register.
How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain for payroll disbursements?
domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.
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.
