Frequently asked questions about imperfect.dot
How do I register a .PAY domain right now?
Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.
Does pre-ordering imperfect.dot affect any other names I want?
A pre-order for imperfect.dot is independent of other names, so you can separately queue additional .PAY candidates without affecting your imperfect.dot request. Each pre-order reserves its own place in line. Browse more options at https://domain.pay/domains and order at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission?
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.
How do priority phases differ from general availability for imperfect.dot?
In priority phases, verified imperfect.dot trademark holders use SMD files to claim imperfect.dot before the public, while general availability opens imperfect.dot to anyone. Using the priority window is the cleanest way for NicNames to avoid a race or dispute. https://domain.pay/pricing
What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea when choosing subscriptions.pay?
Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.
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.
