Frequently asked questions about sfa.dot

As a crypto or DeFi product, how do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

Can I update my SMD if my trademark details change before claiming sfa.dot?

If your trademark details change, you update the underlying TMCH record and re-export a fresh SMD before claiming sfa.dot, so the file reflects the current validated mark. Submitting an outdated SMD risks rejection for sfa.dot. Keep the record and file aligned, then register at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY meant for digital wallets or just for general websites?

.PAY is best understood as a payment-focused domain ending for use cases such as digital wallets, 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/.

What refund do I get if sfa.dot goes to a trademark holder?

If a trademark holder secures sfa.dot during the priority phase and your general-availability pre-order cannot be fulfilled, that failed attempt is refundable under our stated policy. Trademark priority requires a TMCH SMD file. Read how this works for sfa.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

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.

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.
