How many people can pre-order aql.pay at once?

There is no fixed cap on how many applicants pre-order aql.pay; multiple requests for aql can exist in the queue, which is why a pre-order reserves your place rather than guaranteeing the name. Unfulfilled pre-orders are refundable per the stated policy. Pre-order at https://domain.pay/register.

What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for a brand-protection manager?

.PAY labels must follow registry label rules, including 1–63 characters, letters, numbers and hyphens, no leading or trailing hyphen, and additional IDN/reserved-name rules. Test the exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Technical validity does not guarantee availability.

How do I upload my SMD file when registering aql.pay?

During the trademark-priority flow for aql.pay, you upload your TMCH SMD file at the prompt so the registry can verify you own a mark matching aql. The system validates it before submitting your aql.pay request. Begin the priority upload for aql.pay at https://domain.pay/register.

Where can I see already-registered .PAY domains for loan repayments?

Use domain.pay to search the live label and review already-registered .PAY examples: https://domain.pay/domains. If your first choice is already registered or not available, domain.pay can help you browse alternatives or pre-order a different name.

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.
