Frequently asked questions about merkle.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.
How do I avoid losing merkle.dot to a different trademark holder?
To reduce the risk of losing merkle.dot, record your merkle.dot mark in the TMCH and submit your SMD as soon as the priority phase opens. If another validated holder also claims merkle.dot, the registry's rules decide, so acting promptly matters. Prepare your SMD-backed claim at https://domain.pay/register.
Can I reserve brand.pay before broader registration opens for digital wallets?
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.
What is the simplest summary of how to claim merkle.dot as a trademark holder?
In short: record your merkle.dot mark in the TMCH, download the validated SMD file, and submit it through NicNames during the priority phase to claim merkle.dot ahead of the public. If you lack an SMD, a standard pre-order for merkle.dot at $100 is the fallback. Get started at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for loan repayments for loan repayments?
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.
