Frequently asked questions about smartrank.dot

When is broader .PAY public registration expected when choosing travel.pay?

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.

Does NicNames accept SMD files from any TMCH-accredited provider for smartrank.dot?

NicNames accepts the standard SMD file issued through the Trademark Clearinghouse, regardless of which accredited agent helped you record the mark, for claiming smartrank.dot. What matters is a valid, matching SMD for the smartrank.dot string. The issuing path does not change acceptance for smartrank.dot. Upload yours at https://domain.pay/register.

For fraud prevention, could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments?

Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

Does registering smartrank.dot include email or hosting?

Registering smartrank.dot secures the name smartrank.dot in the .PAY registry; email and hosting are separate services you can connect after smartrank.dot is registered via DNS settings. The $100 pre-order covers the name reservation. Reserve smartrank.dot first at https://domain.pay/register.

For online checkout, can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration?

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.

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.
