Frequently asked questions about mote.dot

During the .PAY launch, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

Can holding mote.dot prevent affiliate or partner impersonation?

Owning mote.dot ensures only NicNames controls the official mote.dot payment address, so rogue affiliates or fake partners cannot pose as the genuine payment endpoint. Clear ownership makes unauthorized payment pages easier to flag. https://domain.pay/register

Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken for crypto payments?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

What is the TMCH and how does it affect mote.dot?

The Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) is a central database of validated trademarks that gatekeeps the sunrise phase. To register mote.dot during sunrise, your mark must be recorded there with an SMD file. domain.pay submits accordingly, explained at https://domain.pay/register.

What happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY when choosing travel.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.

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.
