Frequently asked questions about smn.dot

For point-of-sale payments, 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.

Can I get smn.dot if I hold a registered trademark?

Yes. If you hold a registered trademark matching smn.dot, you may use trademark-priority registration for smn.dot, which requires a valid TMCH SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse. This gives eligible brand owners a chance to claim smn.dot ahead of general availability. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.

As a travel booking brand, can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1?

A business that only plans future payments should be careful: LRP1 is written around registrants that conduct online payment transactions using approved processing channels. If you cannot qualify, use domain.pay to pre-order for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register.

Can smn.dot move from premium back to standard pricing?

It can — Amazon Registry Services may reclassify smn.dot, so a premium smn.dot could later register at standard pricing, or vice versa. There's no guaranteed direction or date. Because registry status can change, re-check smn.dot at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Is .PAY meant for online checkout or just for general websites?

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

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.
