Frequently asked questions about prepared.dot

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing link.pay?

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.

Can I pursue both prepared.dot and NicNames at once?

Yes. You can pre-order both prepared.dot and NicNames on domain.pay at $100 each, and failed attempts are refundable, so pursuing two candidates is low-risk. This hedges your bet on prepared.dot. Pre-order both at https://domain.pay/register.

What is a .PAY domain and why does it matter for mobile money?

For mobile money, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

How do I renew prepared.dot and keep eligibility?

You keep prepared.dot active by renewing on time and maintaining accurate registrant data consistent with .PAY expectations. The registry's payment-related framing continues to apply across renewals. domain.pay manages renewals for you; see terms and pricing at https://domain.pay/pricing.

What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for digital wallets for digital wallets?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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.
