Frequently asked questions about legitimate.dot
How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain?
A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.
What sub-topics should a brand-protection plan for legitimate.dot cover?
A solid plan covers registering legitimate.dot, TMCH recording of the legitimate.dot mark, monitoring, customer messaging, renewal discipline, and a dispute playbook. Owning legitimate.dot is the anchor that makes the other steps effective for NicNames. https://domain.pay/
How exact does my trademark need to be for a .PAY Sunrise registration when choosing wallet.pay?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Is legitimate.dot better suited to B2B or B2C payments?
legitimate.dot suits both: B2B users can route it to invoicing for legitimate.dot, while B2C users can point it at retail checkout. The payment-focused suffix fits any audience that needs to pay you. Choose your use case after registering legitimate.dot at /register.
As a mobile wallet team, 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.
