Frequently asked questions about nub.dot

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for online checkout?

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.

Why does the nub.dot exact match matter more than variations for nub.dot?

The exact nub.dot match in nub.dot is what customers naturally type and trust when paying NicNames, making it the highest-impact target for impersonation. Securing the exact nub.dot first delivers the most protection per dollar. https://domain.pay/register

What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea when choosing merchant.pay?

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.

How early should I lock an alternative before nub.dot resolves?

Lock an alternative as soon as you find a clear, available nub.dot variant, rather than waiting for nub.dot to resolve, since refundable $100 pre-orders make early action low-risk. domain.pay lets you secure a fallback immediately. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

As an ecommerce brand, what does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

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.
