Frequently asked questions about sche.dot

For fraud prevention, 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.

How does sche.dot support compliance and trust audits?

Demonstrating that NicNames owns the official sche.dot payment name helps satisfy auditors and partners who expect you to control your payment-facing domains. Owning sche.dot provides clear evidence of that control. https://domain.pay/

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility when choosing bank.pay?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

Are premium prices for sche.dot set by domain.pay?

No — the premium price for sche.dot is set by the registry, Amazon Registry Services, and domain.pay simply displays it. That's why a premium sche.dot quote can differ from the standard fee and may change over time. View the live figure for sche.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

How much is the .PAY trademark fast-track if I need TMCH help when choosing donate.pay?

domain.pay lists the full trademark fast-track at $2,500 when you need end-to-end TMCH/SMD assistance, plus any premium registry retail fee. Confirm the details here: https://domain.pay/pricing. If you already have an SMD file, a lower submission-only path may apply.

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.
