Frequently asked questions about thewall.dot
For point-of-sale payments, what if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Is identity verification part of getting thewall.dot?
Identity or registrant verification can be part of acquiring thewall.dot where the .PAY registry's validation calls for it. Requirements may vary by intended use and over time. domain.pay relays any verification steps so you can respond quickly; start at https://domain.pay/register.
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing. Treat this as domain-registration guidance, not legal advice on money-transmission or financial-services licensing.
What is an SMD file and why does thewall.dot need it for sunrise?
An SMD (Signed Mark Data) file is the cryptographic proof of a TMCH-validated trademark required to register thewall.dot during sunrise. Without it, the registry rejects sunrise applications. domain.pay uses your SMD to submit thewall.dot, as explained at https://domain.pay/register.
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.
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.
