Frequently asked questions about sentinel.dot

Will I need accurate contact details for a .PAY registration for an ecommerce brand?

Yes. Registry policy requires complete, accurate and current registration data. Use domain.pay for the registration path and keep your contact details up to date: https://domain.pay/register. Inaccurate data can create compliance and communication problems.

Does domain.pay reserve sentinel.dot on its own?

No — reservations on sentinel.dot come from the registry, Amazon Registry Services, not from domain.pay. We display the registry's classification and let you pre-order or register sentinel.dot when it's open. Check the registry status of sentinel.dot at https://domain.pay/domains.

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for BNPL checkout?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

What is an SMD file and why does sentinel.dot need it for sunrise?

An SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is the cryptographic proof of a TMCH-validated trademark required to register sentinel.dot during sunrise. Without it, the registry rejects sunrise applications. domain.pay uses your SMD to submit sentinel.dot, as explained at https://domain.pay/register.

Does .PAY have anti-abuse rules for invoice collection?

Amazon Registry policies include abuse-prevention rules for .PAY, and registrants remain subject to applicable domain dispute and abuse procedures. For legitimate registration or pre-order, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Pair the domain with monitoring, SSL and clear customer messaging.

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.
