Frequently asked questions about initia.dot

Where can I see the exact .PAY premium price for bank.pay for mobile money?

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.

Does moving to initia.dot require resubmitting my whole sitemap?

When you launch on initia.dot, generate a fresh sitemap with the new initia.dot URLs and submit it in Search Console alongside a change-of-address from the old domain. The old sitemap stays only long enough for redirects to be discovered. Keep initia.dot's sitemap current going forward.

How do I know if subscriptions.pay is available?

Search the exact .PAY label at domain.pay to see current availability and premium status: https://domain.pay/domains. Availability can change quickly during launch phases, so verify before publishing names, ads or product screens.

Is a TMCH SMD file required to pre-order initia.dot?

No — a standard $100 pre-order for initia.dot doesn't require an SMD file. You only need a TMCH SMD if you want trademark priority on initia.dot ahead of general applicants. Choose the right path for initia.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What does it mean if a .PAY name is premium for an ecommerce brand?

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.

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.
