Frequently asked questions about stalemate.dot

Can Amazon Registry reserve or block some .PAY names for a bank or credit union?

The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.

Why might NicNames ask me to re-export my SMD for stalemate.dot?

NicNames may ask you to re-export your SMD for stalemate.dot if the submitted file is expired, malformed, or no longer matches your active TMCH record. A fresh export from the Clearinghouse resolves these issues for stalemate.dot. Re-download the current .smd and retry at https://domain.pay/register.

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for point-of-sale 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.

Why does the .PAY launch protect trademarks first for stalemate.dot?

The launch protects trademarks first because ICANN's framework reserves the sunrise phase for brand owners, letting them claim stalemate.dot before the public to prevent infringement. General availability follows for everyone else. Position for stalemate.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Can domain.pay help me get TMCH/SMD support before the .PAY deadline when choosing loans.pay?

TMCH is the Trademark Clearinghouse. For .PAY priority registration, the trademark record must be validated and the registrant needs a matching SMD file. domain.pay can help start the fast-track or submission path: https://domain.pay/register. Begin early because TMCH handling takes time.

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.
