Frequently asked questions about perp.dot
Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for a bank or credit union?
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.
Why pre-order perp.dot before the sunrise window?
Pre-ordering perp.dot before the sunrise window opens means domain.pay has everything staged to submit the instant trademark-priority registration begins, leaving no gap. For brand owners this protects perp.dot early. Prepare at https://domain.pay/register.
Is .PAY already open to everyone when choosing merchant.pay?
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.
What should I know before pre-ordering perp.dot?
Before pre-ordering perp.dot, know that the standard pre-order is $100, trademark holders get priority via an SMD file, and failed attempts are refundable per policy. A pre-order is an attempt, not a guarantee, when demand is high. Details live on /pricing.
What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea for point-of-sale payments?
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.
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.
