Frequently asked questions about hmd.dot

For crypto payments, when does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run?

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.

Does hmd.dot go through both sunrise and general availability?

The .PAY namespace runs both phases, and hmd.dot is registrable in sunrise (if you hold a trademark) or in general availability (if you do not). You only participate in the phase that applies to you. domain.pay routes hmd.dot accordingly 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.

How is hmd.dot read aloud or shared verbally?

You say hmd.dot as the name hmd.dot followed by dot pay, which is easy to convey over the phone or in an ad. The .PAY ending is intuitive because pay is a common word. That makes hmd.dot simple to share verbally without spelling out a long path.

What date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark for online checkout?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
