Frequently asked questions about status.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for point-of-sale payments?

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 pre-order status.dot before it is available?

Yes, you can place a pre-order for status.dot ahead of general availability so your request is queued and submitted when the registry opens the name. If the status.dot pre-order fails, the attempt is refundable. Start a pre-order at https://domain.pay/pricing.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders for an ecommerce brand?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

Who is eligible for trademark priority on status.dot?

Eligibility for trademark priority on status.dot belongs to parties holding a valid TMCH-validated trademark matching the status.dot string, evidenced by a current SMD file. Anyone without that SMD must use the standard pre-order path instead. Eligibility is about validated rights, not intent. Check your standing at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I reserve brand.pay before broader registration opens for a mobile wallet team?

Start at domain.pay, search the label, then choose the right path: trademark fast-track if you qualify, or pre-order for a first-day attempt when broader access opens. Use this page: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is subject to registry rules and availability.

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.
