Frequently asked questions about waiter.dot

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window for an insurance billing portal?

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.

How do I compare pricing options for waiter.dot?

You can compare the standard $100 pre-order against any trademark-priority or multi-year options for waiter.dot on the pricing page, which lays out the terms for waiter.dot. The checkout flow then confirms the exact figure for waiter.dot. Compare options at https://domain.pay/pricing.

For payroll disbursements, what .PAY name should a crypto or DeFi product consider?

trust.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

Can I get help validating my mark before I register waiter.dot?

Mark validation happens at the Trademark Clearinghouse, which reviews your evidence before issuing the SMD you need for waiter.dot. NicNames handles the registration step once your SMD is in hand. Complete TMCH validation first, then bring the SMD to claim waiter.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Can I reserve brand.pay before broader registration opens?

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.

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.
