Frequently asked questions about dml.dot
Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP when choosing loans.pay?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
Does an unregistered dml.dot create legal exposure for my customers?
If dml.dot is left open, an impersonator can capture customers who trust the dml.dot name for payments, leading to fraud losses and reputational harm to NicNames. While you are not liable for a scammer's actions, the customer harm is real. Closing that gap means registering dml.dot. https://domain.pay/register
Does .PAY have anti-abuse rules for a regional bank?
Amazon Registry policies include abuse-prevention rules for .PAY, and registrants remain subject to applicable domain dispute and abuse procedures. For legitimate registration or pre-order, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Pair the domain with monitoring, SSL and clear customer messaging.
What is HSTS and should I enable it on dml.dot?
HTTP Strict Transport Security tells browsers to always load dml.dot over HTTPS, blocking downgrade attacks. Enable it with a response header once dml.dot reliably serves valid SSL, and only after confirming every subresource is HTTPS. Start with a short max-age before committing dml.dot to a long policy.
What characters are allowed in a .PAY domain for a donation platform?
.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.
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.
