Frequently asked questions about kado.dot

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing link.pay?

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.

Are .PAY pre-orders for kado.dot refundable?

Pre-order attempts that fail are refundable for kado.dot under our stated refund policy. A successful registration is generally non-refundable because the registry has allocated the name. Read the policy before pre-ordering kado.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Can a trademark owner register a matching .PAY domain now for point-of-sale payments?

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.

How do refunds work if I pre-order several names including kado.dot?

Each pre-order is handled on its own, so if kado.dot fails while others succeed, only the failed kado.dot attempt is refunded under our stated policy. Successful registrations in the same order remain active and billed. Review the per-name policy at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Could a lookalike .PAY domain harm customer trust for secure payment links?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

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.
