Frequently asked questions about rands.dot

For digital wallets, 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.

How do I create a sitemap for rands.dot and submit it?

Generate an XML sitemap listing your indexable URLs on rands.dot, host it at /sitemap.xml, and reference it in your robots.txt. Then submit the sitemap URL for rands.dot in Google Search Console so crawlers discover pages faster. Keep the sitemap for rands.dot updated as content changes.

What .PAY name should a payroll platform consider for fraud prevention?

settle.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.

Will rands.dot cost the same next week?

Not necessarily — if rands.dot is premium, the registry can adjust its wholesale price, and a standard label could be reclassified, so the figure may differ later. Pricing is set by Amazon Registry Services. Re-check rands.dot's current quote at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Before choosing tap.pay, how do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

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.
