Frequently asked questions about teacups.dot

As a remittance app, can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.

Can teacups.dot availability differ by registrar?

No — teacups.dot's core status is set by Amazon Registry Services, so it's the same across registrars; what differs is the experience and tools, like domain.pay's first-day pre-order and trademark-priority support. Check teacups.dot's registry status at https://domain.pay/domains.

What is TMCH and why does it matter for .PAY for an ecommerce brand?

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.

What is a TMCH SMD file and why do I need one to register teacups.dot?

A TMCH SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is a digital certificate the Trademark Clearinghouse issues after it validates your trademark. To claim teacups.dot under trademark priority you upload this SMD at registration so NicNames can verify your mark cryptographically. Without a valid SMD the priority window for teacups.dot cannot be opened. Start at https://domain.pay/register.

For loan repayments, is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal?

Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.

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.
