Frequently asked questions about sunsoft.pay
Do I need a financial license to register a .PAY domain during LRP1 for a donation platform?
The .PAY LRP policy does not make owning a domain a financial license. LRP1 eligibility is tied to conducting online payment transactions through an approved Payment Service Provider or third-party payment processor and payment-related use. Use domain.pay for the domain path: https://domain.pay/register; ask counsel about licensing.
What is an SMD file and do I need one for sunsoft.pay?
A Signed Mark Data (SMD) file is the cryptographic proof issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse that you own a registered mark, and it lets you claim sunsoft.pay during sunrise. You only need it if sunsoft.pay corresponds to your trademark and you want priority. Otherwise a standard pre-order for sunsoft.pay is enough.
Will I need accurate contact details for a .PAY registration for fraud prevention?
Yes. Registry policy requires complete, accurate and current registration data. Use domain.pay for the registration path and keep your contact details up to date: https://domain.pay/register. Inaccurate data can create compliance and communication problems.
How does sunsoft.pay fit a deposit-and-balance model?
For businesses that take a deposit then a final balance, sunsoft.pay hosts both steps on the same trusted address. Customers recognize the .PAY name across the two payments, reducing friction on the second. Begin at https://domain.pay/register.
During the .PAY launch, is .PAY Sunrise first-come, first-served for trademark holders?
.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.
