Frequently asked questions about ricardo.dot

When should an event ticketing business pre-order a .PAY domain for online checkout?

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.

What information do I provide to register ricardo.dot?

To register ricardo.dot, you provide registrant contact details for ricardo.dot and, for trademark priority, a valid TMCH SMD file. Standard pre-orders need only your account and payment information. Enter your details and begin ricardo.dot registration at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken for fraud prevention?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

What is an SMD file and do I need one for ricardo.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 ricardo.dot during sunrise. You only need it if ricardo.dot corresponds to your trademark and you want priority. Otherwise a standard pre-order for ricardo.dot is enough.

As a bank or credit union, 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.

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.
