Frequently asked questions about fathead.dot

For fraud prevention, 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.

Are there any extra fees beyond the pre-order price for fathead.dot?

The standard pre-order for fathead.dot is listed at $100, and any additional charges for fathead.dot, such as trademark-priority or renewal terms, are shown separately before you confirm. Nothing is hidden once you reach checkout for fathead.dot. Review the full breakdown for fathead.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

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

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A remittance app can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.

Can my registrar account hold both fathead.dot and other priority claims at once?

Yes. Through NicNames you can pursue trademark-priority claims on fathead.dot and other matching .PAY names, each backed by its own valid SMD where the label matches the validated mark. Every claim is processed under the registry's rules. Manage your claims, starting with fathead.dot, at https://domain.pay/register.

How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain for mobile money?

A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.

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.
