Frequently asked questions about nesting.dot

Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken for a retail brand?

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.

Why is nesting.dot listed as reserved?

Reserved means the registry has withheld nesting.dot from general registration — it isn't taken by a third party, but Amazon Registry Services has set it aside under its naming policy. Reserved labels sometimes get released later, so registry status can change — re-check nesting.dot periodically. Start a lookup at https://domain.pay/domains.

For point-of-sale payments, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?

An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.

Can I get nesting.dot if I hold a registered trademark?

Yes. If you hold a registered trademark matching nesting.dot, you may use trademark-priority registration for nesting.dot, which requires a valid TMCH SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse. This gives eligible brand owners a chance to claim nesting.dot ahead of general availability. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for point-of-sale payments?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

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.
