Frequently asked questions about supervision.dot

Can I use my own SMD file and pay less for a .PAY submission for crypto payments?

If you already have a valid TMCH-issued SMD file, domain.pay lists the submission-handling path at $100 plus any applicable premium retail fee. Check the current pricing and requirements here: https://domain.pay/pricing. The SMD must match the requested .PAY label.

Which DNS record type connects supervision.dot to a load balancer?

Cloud load balancers are usually referenced by hostname, so you point the apex of supervision.dot using an ALIAS/ANAME record (or a CNAME on a subdomain) at the balancer's DNS name. This lets the balancer's IPs change without breaking supervision.dot. Your provider documents the exact target.

Can a licensee or assignee use a trademark for a .PAY registration for digital wallets?

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.

Which file format does NicNames accept for trademark priority on supervision.dot?

NicNames accepts the standard .smd (Signed Mark Data) file issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse for trademark priority on supervision.dot. The file is a signed, encoded representation of your validated supervision.dot mark. Other documents cannot substitute for the SMD. Upload it during registration at https://domain.pay/register.

As a fintech founder, what does 'approved Payment Service Provider' mean for .PAY eligibility?

During LRP1, .PAY eligibility is limited to registrants that conduct payment transactions online using an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor, with payment-related use. For registration help, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Separate financial licensing depends on your activity and jurisdiction.

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.
