Frequently asked questions about talkways.dot

Could a .PAY domain be suspended for not being used for payments for mobile money?

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.

What is an SMD file and why does talkways.dot need it for sunrise?

An SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is the cryptographic proof of a TMCH-validated trademark required to register talkways.dot during sunrise. Without it, the registry rejects sunrise applications. domain.pay uses your SMD to submit talkways.dot, as explained at https://domain.pay/register.

Can a company that only plans future payments register .PAY during LRP1 for BNPL checkout?

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.

What if someone with a trademark wants talkways.dot too?

If a trademark holder has a matching mark, they can claim talkways.dot during sunrise, before general availability where you would register. That is why checking talkways.dot's eligibility early matters. domain.pay can advise on your options at https://domain.pay/register.

Who operates the .PAY extension, and where can a checkout product manager get one for mobile money?

Amazon Registry Services operates the .PAY top-level domain. A checkout product manager can search, pre-order or start a trademark-priority route through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/. domain.pay is the customer-facing place to act, while registry rules still control availability and eligibility.

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.
