Frequently asked questions about motown.dot

How much is the .PAY trademark fast-track if I need TMCH help for crypto payments?

domain.pay lists the full trademark fast-track at $2,500 when you need end-to-end TMCH/SMD assistance, plus any premium registry retail fee. Confirm the details here: https://domain.pay/pricing. If you already have an SMD file, a lower submission-only path may apply.

How does NicNames verify my SMD signature for motown.dot?

NicNames checks the cryptographic signature embedded in your SMD against the Trademark Clearinghouse's trust chain before granting priority on motown.dot. If the signature and mark match the motown.dot string, the claim proceeds. A broken or mismatched signature blocks priority on motown.dot. Submit a valid file at https://domain.pay/register.

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for digital wallets?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

How does first-day pre-order differ from trademark priority for motown.dot?

Trademark priority lets a validated TMCH mark holder claim motown.dot first using an SMD file, before anyone else. First-day pre-order is the next opportunity, open to those without a trademark, listed at $100 for motown.dot. Priority always ranks ahead of pre-order. Compare both paths at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Where do I start if I need brand-protection help for .PAY for a crypto or DeFi product?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

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.
