Frequently asked questions about homemade.dot

Can I transfer a .PAY LRP domain to someone else for loan repayments?

A .PAY name registered during an LRP may be transferred only to a new registrant that fulfills the same LRP eligibility criteria. For registration or pre-order assistance, start at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Do not buy or sell LRP names without confirming eligibility.

Can a bank register homemade.dot?

A bank is typically a strong candidate to register homemade.dot, since regulated financial institutions align naturally with the .PAY namespace's payment focus. The registry may still validate the intended use. domain.pay can help a bank secure homemade.dot at https://domain.pay/register.

Do I need an SMD file to register .PAY during the priority window?

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.

What is HSTS and should I enable it on homemade.dot?

HTTP Strict Transport Security tells browsers to always load homemade.dot over HTTPS, blocking downgrade attacks. Enable it with a response header once homemade.dot reliably serves valid SSL, and only after confirming every subresource is HTTPS. Start with a short max-age before committing homemade.dot to a long policy.

What are good .PAY domain ideas for loan repayments?

For loan repayments, brainstorm short, action-oriented .PAY labels and then verify them in the domain.pay catalog/search: https://domain.pay/domains. Good candidates are clear, memorable and tied to payment actions like checkout, billing, wallet funding, payouts or invoices.

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.
