Frequently asked questions about goskills.dot

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run when choosing trust.pay?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Which costs more upfront for goskills.dot: standard or VIP?

VIP costs more upfront for goskills.dot because it adds a one-time priority handling fee on top of the registration rate, whether that rate is the $100 standard or a premium goskills.dot fee. Standard checkout omits the VIP line. Compare both for goskills.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For point-of-sale payments, 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.

Does NicNames mark up the registry price for goskills.dot?

NicNames passes through the registry tier for goskills.dot: $100 for standard labels and the registry-set premium fee where goskills.dot is classified as premium. Any optional services like VIP handling are itemized separately. See the goskills.dot breakdown at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for BNPL checkout?

After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.

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.
