Frequently asked questions about nameit.dot

How do I choose between trademark fast-track and pre-order for fraud prevention?

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.

Does NicNames accept SMD files from any TMCH-accredited provider for nameit.dot?

NicNames accepts the standard SMD file issued through the Trademark Clearinghouse, regardless of which accredited agent helped you record the mark, for claiming nameit.dot. What matters is a valid, matching SMD for the nameit.dot string. The issuing path does not change acceptance for nameit.dot. Upload yours at https://domain.pay/register.

For point-of-sale payments, where do I enter the .PAY label I want to check?

Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.

Why does nameit.dot require a TMCH file for early registration?

Early, trademark-priority registration of nameit.dot protects rights holders, so the registry requires a TMCH SMD file proving you own a mark matching nameit.dot. General availability for nameit.dot has no such requirement, only the applicable fee. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

What is the quickest path to secure a .PAY domain for a crypto or DeFi product?

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.
