Frequently asked questions about cocoon.dot
What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY for BNPL checkout?
.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.
How do I set up a 404 and proper status codes on cocoon.dot?
Configure cocoon.dot to return a real 404 for missing pages and 200 for live ones, never a 'soft 404' that returns 200 on an error page. Correct status codes help crawlers index cocoon.dot accurately. Use a helpful 404 page on cocoon.dot with links back to key sections.
Can I browse alternative .PAY names if my first choice is taken for BNPL checkout?
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.
What information is encoded inside the SMD I use for cocoon.dot?
The SMD you use for cocoon.dot encodes your validated mark text matching the cocoon.dot string, associated dates, and a cryptographic signature from the TMCH. NicNames reads this to confirm your priority eligibility for cocoon.dot. You never edit the file; you simply submit it. Upload it at https://domain.pay/register.
Where can I pre-order a .PAY name for loan repayments for an ecommerce brand?
Yes. If you do not have a matching trademark, use domain.pay to pre-order a first-day registration attempt for broader availability: https://domain.pay/register. A pre-order is not a guarantee; the name may become unavailable, premium, reserved or blocked before submission.
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.
