Frequently asked questions about selkie.dot

What is a .PAY domain and why does it matter for digital wallets for a donation platform?

.PAY is a payment-focused top-level domain operated by Amazon Registry Services. For digital wallets, it can make the payment purpose of a URL clearer than a generic address. Check or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay handles the customer path for trademark-priority registration or first-day pre-order attempts.

Where do I get the SMD file needed to secure selkie.dot?

You obtain the SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse after your trademark is recorded and validated there. Once issued, you download the .smd file and bring it to NicNames to claim selkie.dot under priority. NicNames does not issue SMD files itself. Start your priority registration of selkie.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission when choosing wallet.pay?

If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.

How do I verify selkie.dot for Google Search Console?

The most robust method is to add the TXT verification record Google provides to the DNS of selkie.dot, which proves domain-wide ownership. Once the TXT record on selkie.dot propagates, click verify in Search Console. This unlocks indexing data and sitemap submission for selkie.dot.

Is .PAY meant for mobile money or just for general websites for an insurance billing portal?

.PAY is best understood as a payment-focused domain ending for use cases such as mobile money, checkout, billing, wallets and fintech. It is not a compliance substitute, but it can make the URL purpose clearer. Check your label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

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.
