Frequently asked questions about shopt.dot

As a mobile wallet team, 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.

What evidence does the TMCH need before issuing the SMD I use for shopt.dot?

The Trademark Clearinghouse requires proof of a registered, valid trademark and may request a sample of use before issuing the SMD you use for shopt.dot. Only after that validation is the SMD available. NicNames then accepts that file for priority on shopt.dot. Prepare your evidence, then register at https://domain.pay/register.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for a remittance app?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Is shopt.dot more sensitive to abuse because .PAY implies payments?

Yes. A payment-purpose TLD like .PAY raises anti-phishing and trust considerations because users reasonably expect shopt.dot to handle money. That heightened trust is valuable to your NicNames but also attractive to scammers, so owning shopt.dot protects both you and your customers. https://domain.pay/

Could I use .PAY for a wallet or payment app for online checkout?

Yes. A wallet or payment app can use .PAY for a memorable payment-specific entry point. Check candidate labels through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If you own a matching trademark, consider the priority route; otherwise pre-order for broader access.

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.
