Frequently asked questions about outside.dot

As a mobile wallet team, what date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark?

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.

How is outside.dot protected against cybersquatting through TMCH?

TMCH protects outside.dot by letting the validated owner of the outside.dot mark claim it first via an SMD, before squatters can reach it in general availability. Trademark priority is the front-line defence for outside.dot. Pairing it with a timely registration reduces conflict risk. Secure your priority claim at https://domain.pay/register.

When is the .PAY Sunrise period for fraud prevention?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

Why is an SMD more secure than just emailing my trademark certificate for outside.dot?

An SMD is cryptographically signed by the TMCH, so NicNames can verify it automatically without manually inspecting a certificate when granting priority on outside.dot. A loose certificate could be forged or mistyped; the signed SMD cannot. That is why outside.dot priority relies on the SMD. Submit yours at https://domain.pay/register.

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for loan repayments?

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.

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.
