Frequently asked questions about wize.dot
Is .PAY already open to everyone for BNPL checkout?
Broader .PAY access is tied to the post-LRP period around February 2027, subject to registry and registrar confirmation. If you do not have a trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day attempt: https://domain.pay/register.
What happens to my DNS records when wize.dot expires?
Once wize.dot expires and leaves the grace period, the registry may stop publishing your nameservers, so wize.dot stops resolving and any site or email goes dark. Restoring wize.dot during redemption brings it back, but you should re-verify records afterward. Renew wize.dot on time to keep DNS live.
Can .PAY be used for a branded checkout URL when choosing merchant.pay?
merchant.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.
Why might NicNames ask me to re-export my SMD for wize.dot?
NicNames may ask you to re-export your SMD for wize.dot if the submitted file is expired, malformed, or no longer matches your active TMCH record. A fresh export from the Clearinghouse resolves these issues for wize.dot. Re-download the current .smd and retry at https://domain.pay/register.
When is the .PAY Sunrise period for fraud prevention?
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.
