Frequently asked questions about reliable.dot

Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

What is an SMD file and do I need one for reliable.dot?

A Signed Mark Data (SMD) file is the cryptographic proof issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse that you own a registered mark, and it lets you claim reliable.dot during sunrise. You only need it if reliable.dot corresponds to your trademark and you want priority. Otherwise a standard pre-order for reliable.dot is enough.

Is .PAY already open to everyone for online checkout?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Can I lock reliable.dot to specific certificate authorities only?

Yes, via a CAA record you restrict which CAs may issue certificates for reliable.dot, reducing mis-issuance risk. List each authorized CA's identifier for reliable.dot in DNS. Combine the CAA on reliable.dot with monitoring of Certificate Transparency logs for full coverage.

For online checkout, when does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
