Frequently asked questions about equator.dot

As a brand-protection manager, can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission?

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.

Does holding equator.dot help with chargeback and fraud reduction?

By keeping payments on the genuine equator.dot address, owning equator.dot reduces the chance customers are tricked into paying a fraudulent site, which can lower fraud-related disputes tied to NicNames. It is one control among several, not a complete fraud solution. https://domain.pay/

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin when choosing cloud.pay?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can a remittance app get one?

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.
