Frequently asked questions about pluggable.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for a mobile wallet team?

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.

Will pluggable.dot ever become available if it's reserved today?

Possibly — registry-reserved labels can be released into general availability when Amazon Registry Services updates its policies, but there's no guaranteed date. The safest approach is to monitor pluggable.dot and re-check its status regularly, since registry status can change. Track pluggable.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

As a donation platform, do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

Can I pre-order pluggable.dot and decide later?

A first-day pre-order lets you queue an attempt for pluggable.dot now, and if the attempt does not succeed it is refundable per policy. This gives you flexibility on competitive names. domain.pay manages the pre-order; see terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.

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.

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.
