Exact checks can vary and may evolve over time. domain.pay relays any validation steps when you register at https://domain.pay/register.

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium for loan repayments?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

How early should I prepare my SMD relative to the hobbytech.dot priority phase?

Prepare your SMD well before the hobbytech.dot priority phase, since TMCH validation takes time you do not control.
