.PAY domain
Checking availability…
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.
A zipper.pay pre-order is placed at the rate shown when you order, but if the registry changes the tier for zipper before allocation the final fee can differ. If that happens or the attempt fails, zipper.pay is refundable under our stated policy. Review terms at https://domain.pay/pricing.
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
Small businesses generally do not need a special license just to register zipper.pay, since the .PAY registry validates payment-related use rather than issuing licenses. Any licensing duty would come from operating regulated payments under local law. domain.pay clarifies registry expectations at https://domain.pay/register.
.PAY Sunrise registrations can be subject to Sunrise dispute procedures if the registration or denial violates the Sunrise criteria. Start by checking your own label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register, and coordinate with trademark counsel for formal dispute strategy.
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.
