Frequently asked questions about hickies.dot

Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for an insurance billing portal?

After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.

How do I set up a www and non-www version of hickies.dot?

Create a CNAME (or matching A record) for www.hickies.dot alongside the apex, then pick one canonical version and 301-redirect the other. Consistency tells search engines which form of hickies.dot to index and avoids duplicate-content dilution. Decide canonical before launch.

What does the $100 .PAY pre-order cover for digital wallets?

domain.pay lists standard .PAY pre-order service at $100 for a first-day attempt, with separate premium fees if the registry classifies the label as premium. See the current pricing here: https://domain.pay/pricing. Failed attempts are covered by the stated credit/cash-refund options.

Are pre-orders for hickies.dot first come, first served?

Standard pre-orders for hickies.dot are generally handled in the order received once hickies.dot becomes registrable, but trademark-priority claims and registry rules can take precedence. If your pre-order cannot be fulfilled, the fee is refundable per the stated policy. Pre-order hickies.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

What are the current .PAY launch dates in 2026 and 2027 for a remittance app?

Current ICANN dates: .PAY Sunrise is April 13–July 20, 2026; LRP1 is July 20, 2026–February 1, 2027; Trademark Claims is February 1–May 2, 2027. For registration or pre-order action, use domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.

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.
