Frequently asked questions about etosha.dot

As a mobile wallet team, what happens to my money if the .PAY registration attempt fails?

domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.

How do I transfer etosha.dot to another registrar later?

To transfer etosha.dot out, unlock it, obtain the authorization (EPP) code, and submit a transfer request at the gaining registrar. etosha.dot must usually be at least 60 days old and not recently transferred. The new registrar walks you through approving the move of etosha.dot.

For online checkout, how does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

How does owning etosha.dot reduce phishing risk for the NicNames name?

When NicNames owns etosha.dot, bad actors cannot register the etosha.dot name and pass it off as your official payment page. Because .PAY signals payment intent, an impersonating etosha.dot address is especially convincing to victims, so holding the real one removes that vector. Lock it down at https://domain.pay/register.

Before choosing tap.pay, 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.

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.
