Frequently asked questions about scanning.dot

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

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.

How do I set up a wildcard certificate for *.scanning.dot?

Request a wildcard certificate covering *.scanning.dot, which most CAs issue via DNS validation by checking a TXT record on scanning.dot. A wildcard then secures every subdomain of scanning.dot with one cert. Remember the wildcard for scanning.dot does not cover the bare apex, so include it explicitly.

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for crypto payments?

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. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.

How do I point scanning.dot at a Shopify or Wix store?

Hosted platforms give you a target — usually a CNAME or specific A records — that you add to the DNS of scanning.dot, plus they auto-provision SSL. Follow your platform's connect-domain guide using scanning.dot as the custom domain. Edit the records for scanning.dot from /domains.

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY for fraud prevention?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.
