Frequently asked questions about upe.dot
During the .PAY launch, do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?
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.
What if someone else pre-orders upe.dot before my priority claim?
A standard pre-order does not outrank trademark priority, so if you hold a valid SMD for the upe.dot mark, your priority claim on upe.dot is processed ahead of that pre-order. The pre-order is refundable per policy if it cannot be fulfilled. Validated rights come first for upe.dot. Claim yours at https://domain.pay/register.
Should I defensively register my brand in .PAY for rent collection?
If your brand accepts payments, registering the exact .PAY label can be a practical defensive step. Use domain.pay to check and start the priority or pre-order path: https://domain.pay/register. Also keep trademark monitoring and security controls in place.
How do I transfer upe.dot to another registrar later?
To transfer upe.dot out, unlock it, obtain the authorization (EPP) code, and submit a transfer request at the gaining registrar. upe.dot must usually be at least 60 days old and not recently transferred. The new registrar walks you through approving the move of upe.dot.
For payroll disbursements, how does the first-day .PAY pre-order attempt work?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
