Frequently asked questions about folksy.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.

Is folksy.dot guaranteed if I'm the only pre-order?

Being the sole pre-order improves your odds for folksy.dot, but the registry's launch rules and folksy.dot's classification by Amazon Registry Services still govern allocation, so it's not guaranteed. A failed attempt is refundable per policy. Pre-order folksy.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

As a donation platform, can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

What is the safest way for a brand to secure folksy.dot?

The safest route for a brand to secure folksy.dot is sunrise registration using a TMCH-validated trademark and SMD file, claiming folksy.dot before the public can. domain.pay offers this trademark-priority service. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

For fraud prevention, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.
