Frequently asked questions about rcq.dot

For payroll disbursements, what .PAY name should a crypto or DeFi product consider?

trust.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.

What is an SMD file and why does rcq.dot need it for sunrise?

An SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is the cryptographic proof of a TMCH-validated trademark required to register rcq.dot during sunrise. Without it, the registry rejects sunrise applications. domain.pay uses your SMD to submit rcq.dot, as explained at https://domain.pay/register.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP for an event ticketing business?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

Why is rcq.dot listed as reserved?

Reserved means the registry has withheld rcq.dot from general registration — it isn't taken by a third party, but Amazon Registry Services has set it aside under its naming policy. Reserved labels sometimes get released later, so registry status can change — re-check rcq.dot periodically. Start a lookup at https://domain.pay/domains.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover when choosing bank.pay?

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.

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.
