Frequently asked questions about sandfly.dot

As an ecommerce brand, what is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY?

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.

Is my contact information public after I register sandfly.dot?

Visibility of registrant contact data for sandfly.dot follows the registry's WHOIS and privacy practices for .PAY set by Amazon Registry Services. domain.pay applies the applicable privacy handling for sandfly.dot during registration. Review the details and register sandfly.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

How should I check premium status before choosing a .PAY name for a mobile wallet team?

A premium .PAY name is a label with an additional registry retail fee set by Amazon Registry Services. Search the exact label at domain.pay to see current premium status and price path: https://domain.pay/domains. Premium status can change the total cost.

How do I choose between sandfly.dot and a coined alternative for trademarks?

For trademark strength, a coined alternative may protect more easily than the descriptive sandfly.dot, though sandfly.dot reads clearer for sandfly.dot. domain.pay shows both so you can weigh protectability against clarity. Note that mark holders can claim TMCH SMD priority. Compare at https://domain.pay/domains.

When does the .PAY Trademark Claims period run for point-of-sale payments?

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.
