Frequently asked questions about protiva.dot

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

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.

Which is better for branding, protiva.dot.pay or protiva.dot.com?

For payments and fintech, protiva.dot reads as purpose-built and can be more memorable than a crowded .com, while a .com carries broad familiarity. Many brands secure both and redirect one. Technically they rank and resolve the same, so choose protiva.dot based on brand fit, not SEO.

For payroll disbursements, 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.

Can I set up catch-all email for protiva.dot?

Yes, if your mail provider supports it, a catch-all routes any address at protiva.dot to one inbox. It's convenient but can attract spam, so many teams prefer explicit aliases for protiva.dot instead. Configure the catch-all in your mailbox provider after MX for protiva.dot is live.

Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL for an insurance billing portal?

cloud.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

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.
