Frequently asked questions about resides.dot

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.

When is it worth choosing a different name than resides.dot?

Compare options at https://domain.pay/domains.

For digital wallets, when does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run?

ICANN currently lists the .PAY Trademark Claims period from February 1, 2027 to May 2, 2027. For practical registration action, check your preferred label and pre-order path on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

Should a campaign landing page live on resides.dot?

For any campaign that ends in a purchase or donation, resides.dot gives you a campaign URL that already implies the payment step. That clarity can reduce hesitation between the click and the conversion. You can secure the name at https://domain.pay/register.

Should a remittance app protect its exact brand in .PAY for rent 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.

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.
