Frequently asked questions about i3c.dot
What happens to my money if the .PAY registration attempt fails when choosing loans.pay?
domain.pay states that if a registration attempt is unsuccessful, you receive 100% credit toward another domain or may request an 80% cash refund. Review the live refund wording before ordering: https://domain.pay/pricing. Premium, reserved, blocked or already-registered names can still prevent success.
Is there a notice system that warns me if i3c.dot is being registered?
Yes. The TMCH Claims Service sends notices when someone attempts to register a name matching your recorded i3c.dot mark, such as i3c.dot, during the applicable period. This gives NicNames early warning, though acting first is still strongest. https://domain.pay/pricing
Before choosing link.pay, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?
TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.
How does impersonation on i3c.dot differ from email spoofing?
Email spoofing fakes a sender, while controlling i3c.dot lets an attacker run a whole fraudulent payment site under the real i3c.dot name. The domain-level attack is harder to detect and more convincing, so denying it by owning i3c.dot is a high-value protection for NicNames. https://domain.pay/register
For BNPL checkout, 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.
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.
