Frequently asked questions about smail.dot

For payroll disbursements, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?

An SMD file is the TMCH-issued credential used to prove a validated mark during Sunrise. For .PAY, bring your SMD or use domain.pay’s full fast-track if you need help obtaining one: https://domain.pay/register. The SMD must match the requested label.

Does moving to smail.dot require resubmitting my whole sitemap?

When you launch on smail.dot, generate a fresh sitemap with the new smail.dot URLs and submit it in Search Console alongside a change-of-address from the old domain. The old sitemap stays only long enough for redirects to be discovered. Keep smail.dot's sitemap current going forward.

Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for a fintech founder?

If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.

Does Amazon set the price I pay for smail.dot?

Amazon Registry Services, the .PAY operator, sets the underlying tier for smail.dot: the $100 standard rate or a higher premium fee for smail.dot. We display that registry price plus any optional services. Confirm the registry-driven price for smail.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

As a regional bank, how does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?

Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.

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.
