Frequently asked questions about aqn.pay

For crypto payments, 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.

How do I check if aqn.pay is available?

You can check availability for aqn.pay directly on domain.pay's registration flow, which queries the .PAY registry status. If aqn.pay is open, you can place a first-day pre-order; if a trademark window applies, the SMD path is offered. Start at /register.

Could a lookalike .PAY domain harm customer trust for a bank or credit union?

.PAY is sensitive because it signals money movement, so lookalike domains can confuse customers. Check your exact brand and obvious variants at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Registration is one brand-protection layer, not a full anti-phishing program.

Are individuals allowed to register aqn.pay?

Individuals may be able to register aqn.pay in many situations, as .PAY does not necessarily require corporate status. The registry's focus is typically on payment-related, good-faith use rather than excluding individuals. domain.pay can confirm current eligibility for your case at https://domain.pay/register.

Is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders when choosing tap.pay?

.PAY Sunrise is a Start-Date Sunrise, so eligible trademark registrations are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis when policy requirements are met. Start the request at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Waiting can increase the risk that another eligible party gets the matching label first.

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.
