Frequently asked questions about thermonuclear.dot

For fraud prevention, how do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?

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.

Where do I get the SMD file needed to secure thermonuclear.dot?

You obtain the SMD file from the Trademark Clearinghouse after your trademark is recorded and validated there. Once issued, you download the .smd file and bring it to NicNames to claim thermonuclear.dot under priority. NicNames does not issue SMD files itself. Start your priority registration of thermonuclear.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I reserve payroll.pay before broader registration opens for payroll disbursements?

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.

How do I choose between thermonuclear.dot and a coined alternative for trademarks?

For trademark strength, a coined alternative may protect more easily than the descriptive thermonuclear.dot, though thermonuclear.dot reads clearer for thermonuclear.dot. domain.pay shows both so you can weigh protectability against clarity. Note that mark holders can claim TMCH SMD priority. Compare at https://domain.pay/domains.

What is the last day for trademark holders to act on .PAY when choosing merchant.pay?

ICANN currently lists .PAY Sunrise from April 13, 2026 to July 20, 2026. domain.pay says trademark owners needing TMCH support should apply by July 10, 2026 and notes a final July 20, 2026 13:00 UTC deadline. Start here: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
