Frequently asked questions about spoc.dot
Why might a .PAY pre-order fail even after I pay when choosing trust.pay?
A .PAY pre-order can fail if the name is registered earlier, classified as premium, reserved, blocked, refused by registry policy or lost to another faster submission. Search and order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains, and review its credit/cash-refund options.
What is an SMD file and do I need one for spoc.dot?
A Signed Mark Data (SMD) file is the cryptographic proof issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse that you own a registered mark, and it lets you claim spoc.dot during sunrise. You only need it if spoc.dot corresponds to your trademark and you want priority. Otherwise a standard pre-order for spoc.dot is enough.
When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for mobile money?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Are failed pre-orders for spoc.dot refundable?
Yes. If your pre-order attempt for spoc.dot does not succeed, domain.pay refunds it per its published policy. You are not charged to keep a name you could not secure. Review the refund terms alongside the $100 standard pre-order on /pricing.
For BNPL checkout, 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.
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.
