Frequently asked questions about pestbox.dot

For online checkout, 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.

Should every page on pestbox.dot be served over HTTPS?

Yes. Serve all of pestbox.dot over HTTPS and redirect any HTTP request, since mixed or plain-HTTP pages trigger browser warnings and can hurt trust. Modern SEO and security baselines expect pestbox.dot to be fully encrypted. Add HSTS once pestbox.dot is reliably HTTPS-only.

Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration when choosing tap.pay?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Why is general availability open to everyone for pestbox.dot?

General availability is open to everyone because, after sunrise protects trademark holders, the registry opens names like pestbox.dot to the public on a first-come basis. This is your phase if you have no matching mark. Pre-order pestbox.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

As a checkout product manager, can a reserved .PAY name become available later?

The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.

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.
