Frequently asked questions about helia.dot
Before choosing donate.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.
What angle should I try first to replace helia.dot?
Try the direct synonym angle first to replace helia.dot: search words that mean the same as helia.dot on domain.pay. If that's thin, move to prefixes, suffixes, and the catalog. Start with synonyms at https://domain.pay/domains.
Could I use .PAY for a wallet or payment app for loan repayments?
Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.
What is the difference between an A record and CNAME for helia.dot?
An A record maps helia.dot (or a subdomain) directly to an IP address, while a CNAME aliases a subdomain to another hostname. The apex of helia.dot generally needs an A (or ALIAS) record, since classic CNAMEs aren't allowed at the root. Use CNAMEs for subdomains of helia.dot.
How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments?
domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.
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.
