Frequently asked questions about saint.dot

Can I pay for a .PAY pre-order by card, wire or crypto for point-of-sale payments?

domain.pay supports common payment paths including card, wire and crypto-invoice options as listed on the site. Start with the pricing page and checkout flow here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Payment does not guarantee registration; it reserves the applicable service attempt.

How do I submit my SMD file when registering saint.dot?

During the trademark-priority flow for saint.dot, NicNames presents an upload field where you attach the .smd file exported from the Trademark Clearinghouse. The system parses the encoded mark and confirms the saint.dot label matches your validated trademark. Once accepted, your priority claim on saint.dot is queued. Upload it at https://domain.pay/register.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a brand-protection manager?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.

Can I pre-order a backup name in case saint.dot falls through?

Yes. While saint.dot is uncertain, you can pre-order one or more backup .PAY names on domain.pay at the standard pre-order price of $100 each. Failed pre-order attempts are refundable, so securing a fallback carries limited downside. Place a pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

What happens around February 1, 2027 for .PAY when choosing trust.pay?

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.

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.
