Frequently asked questions about mismatch.dot
For point-of-sale payments, what happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
Who operates the .PAY registry behind mismatch.dot?
The .PAY top-level domain that mismatch.dot belongs to is operated by Amazon Registry Services, Amazon's domain registry arm. They set the policies and run the infrastructure for every .PAY name. domain.pay is a registration service that helps you secure mismatch.dot on that registry; see https://domain.pay/.
Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for loan repayments?
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 make sure my SMD matches the exact label in mismatch.dot?
Open your TMCH record to see the validated mark text, then compare it against the mismatch.dot string in mismatch.dot character by character before submitting. NicNames only grants priority when the SMD-encoded mark matches that label for mismatch.dot. A mismatch routes you to standard pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for point-of-sale payments?
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.
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.
