Frequently asked questions about hypertext.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for online checkout?

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.

Should a campaign landing page live on hypertext.dot?

For any campaign that ends in a purchase or donation, hypertext.dot gives you a campaign URL that already implies the payment step. That clarity can reduce hesitation between the click and the conversion. You can secure the name at https://domain.pay/register.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility when choosing bank.pay?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Is trademark priority on hypertext.dot guaranteed if my SMD is valid?

A valid SMD makes your claim on hypertext.dot eligible for trademark priority, but if other validated holders of the hypertext.dot mark also claim it, the registry's published rules decide the outcome. A valid SMD is necessary, not always a sole guarantee. Submit your SMD-backed claim at https://domain.pay/register.

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for online checkout?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: 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.
