Frequently asked questions about exablate.dot
For digital wallets, what is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.
What is the difference between pre-order and registration for exablate.dot?
A pre-order stages your intent to register exablate.dot and is submitted when its phase opens; the registration is the completed assignment of exablate.dot to you once the registry approves. domain.pay turns your exablate.dot pre-order into a registration at the right time. Start at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark for loan repayments?
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.
Does NicNames accept SMD files from any TMCH-accredited provider for exablate.dot?
NicNames accepts the standard SMD file issued through the Trademark Clearinghouse, regardless of which accredited agent helped you record the mark, for claiming exablate.dot. What matters is a valid, matching SMD for the exablate.dot string. The issuing path does not change acceptance for exablate.dot. Upload yours at https://domain.pay/register.
How do I know if merchant.pay is available for a donation platform?
Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.
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.
