Frequently asked questions about sequel.dot

As a bank or credit union, what date matters most if I want a .PAY name without a trademark?

Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.

Will registering sequel.dot stop typosquatting on the sequel.dot name?

Registering sequel.dot secures the exact sequel.dot match, which removes the most convincing impersonation target, but close typo variants are separate names. A layered approach is to hold sequel.dot plus monitor and, where warranted, register or dispute confusingly similar variants. Start with the exact match at https://domain.pay/register.

Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?

The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.

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

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

What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY for point-of-sale payments?

.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.

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.
