Frequently asked questions about hemlock.dot

For digital wallets, how do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark?

Trademark owners can register matching .PAY names during the priority/Sunrise path if they meet TMCH/SMD and identical-match rules. Start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. If you are not a trademark holder, use the pre-order path for broader access instead.

What is the risk of a competitor registering hemlock.dot?

A competitor holding hemlock.dot could divert customers searching for your hemlock.dot payment name or sow confusion about who is official. Because .PAY implies payments, that confusion is especially harmful. Registering hemlock.dot yourself removes the opening. https://domain.pay/register

Where should I check whether a .PAY name fits my digital wallets project for an event ticketing business?

For digital wallets, .PAY can be a strong payment-specific brand signal. It does not replace compliance, security or a trusted checkout flow, but it can make the URL purpose obvious. Start with an availability check on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

Can I use a CDN like Cloudflare in front of hemlock.dot?

Yes. Point hemlock.dot's nameservers (or a CNAME) at the CDN, and it will cache content, terminate SSL, and absorb traffic spikes for hemlock.dot. A CDN improves load times and resilience without changing your origin server. Configure the records for hemlock.dot as the CDN instructs.

Is a payment gateway business eligible for .PAY in the LRP?

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.

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.
