Frequently asked questions about horns.dot
As a mobile wallet team, how should I check premium status before choosing a .PAY name?
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.
When should I claim horns.dot during a trademark priority phase?
If you hold a registered mark for horns.dot, record it in the TMCH and use your SMD file during the priority window so you can claim horns.dot before general availability. Acting in the priority phase is the cleanest way to secure horns.dot without a later dispute. Review timing options at https://domain.pay/pricing.
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing wallet.pay?
If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.
What is an SMD file and do I need one for horns.dot?
A Signed Mark Data (SMD) file is the cryptographic proof issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse that you own a registered mark, and it lets you claim horns.dot during sunrise. You only need it if horns.dot corresponds to your trademark and you want priority. Otherwise a standard pre-order for horns.dot is enough.
Before choosing link.pay, what should trademark counsel do before July 20, 2026 for .PAY?
Trademark owners should act before the July 20, 2026 .PAY priority deadline. domain.pay also notes that TMCH support should begin earlier, by July 10, 2026. Check your label and start here: https://domain.pay/register. Late action may push you into later phases.
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.
