Frequently asked questions about ipcs.dot

Before choosing bank.pay, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

Which path is faster for securing ipcs.dot, pre-order or trademark priority?

Trademark priority lets a TMCH SMD holder claim ipcs.dot during the registry's earliest window, generally ahead of a standard $100 pre-order, which submits at general availability. Speed depends on Amazon Registry Services' phases, not domain.pay. Choose the right path for ipcs.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin when choosing subscriptions.pay?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What is a TMCH SMD file and how does it relate to ipcs.dot?

A TMCH SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is a proof-of-trademark token from the Trademark Clearinghouse. If you hold the trademark for ipcs.dot, uploading your SMD file lets you claim ipcs.dot during the priority window before general pre-orders. domain.pay accepts the SMD file at /register.

As a brand-protection manager, can I pre-register a .PAY name without a trademark?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
