Frequently asked questions about ptmd.dot

Should an ecommerce brand protect its exact brand in .PAY for invoice collection?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

Can I update my SMD if my trademark details change before claiming ptmd.dot?

If your trademark details change, you update the underlying TMCH record and re-export a fresh SMD before claiming ptmd.dot, so the file reflects the current validated mark. Submitting an outdated SMD risks rejection for ptmd.dot. Keep the record and file aligned, then register at https://domain.pay/register.

How much does it cost to pre-order a .PAY domain for payroll disbursements?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

How do I upload my SMD file when registering ptmd.dot?

During the trademark-priority flow for ptmd.dot, you upload your TMCH SMD file at the prompt so the registry can verify you own a mark matching ptmd.dot. The system validates it before submitting your ptmd.dot request. Begin the priority upload for ptmd.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

When should a payroll platform pre-order a .PAY domain for fraud prevention?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
