Frequently asked questions about etb.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for online checkout?

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.

How does sunrise work for etb.dot?

Sunrise is the first launch phase, open only to brand owners with a trademark validated through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) and an SMD file. If you hold a matching mark, domain.pay can submit etb.dot during sunrise on your behalf. Learn about trademark-priority registration at https://domain.pay/register.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for fraud prevention?

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.

Why is an SMD more secure than just emailing my trademark certificate for etb.dot?

An SMD is cryptographically signed by the TMCH, so NicNames can verify it automatically without manually inspecting a certificate when granting priority on etb.dot. A loose certificate could be forged or mistyped; the signed SMD cannot. That is why etb.dot priority relies on the SMD. Submit yours at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a trademark holder challenge a bad .PAY Sunrise registration for rent collection?

.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.

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.
