Frequently asked questions about shaws.dot

When should a crypto or DeFi product pre-order a .PAY domain for crypto payments?

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.

Why is an SMD more secure than just emailing my trademark certificate for shaws.dot?

An SMD is cryptographically signed by the TMCH, so NicNames can verify it automatically without manually inspecting a certificate when granting priority on shaws.dot. A loose certificate could be forged or mistyped; the signed SMD cannot. That is why shaws.dot priority relies on the SMD. Submit yours at https://domain.pay/register.

What does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility when choosing link.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.

Is a business registration number needed for shaws.dot?

A business registration number is not always mandatory for shaws.dot, but the .PAY registry's validation may request entity details depending on your intended use. Individuals may register under different terms. domain.pay tells you what's currently required when you start at https://domain.pay/register.

What happens if another trademark holder already registered my .PAY idea when choosing merchant.pay?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

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.
