Frequently asked questions about telfar.dot

How do I register a .PAY domain as a startup when choosing payroll.pay?

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.

Can I change the nameservers on telfar.dot without losing email?

Yes, if you recreate the MX (and SPF/DKIM/DMARC) records at the new DNS host before switching nameservers for telfar.dot. Identical records mean mail keeps flowing through the cutover of telfar.dot. Verify telfar.dot's email after the change by sending a test message.

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for mobile money?

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.

Is it worth protecting telfar.dot if my brand is mostly local?

Yes. Local brands still take payments, and a fraudster impersonating your telfar.dot name can defraud your nearby customers just as easily. Because the cost is a $100 refundable pre-order, even a regional NicNames benefits from owning telfar.dot. https://domain.pay/register

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP when choosing loans.pay?

An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.

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.
