Frequently asked questions about hotflow.dot
As a mobile wallet team, when does the .PAY LRP1 period begin?
ICANN currently lists .PAY Limited Registration Period 1 from July 20, 2026 to February 1, 2027. LRP1 has payment-transaction eligibility and use restrictions. Check your domain path through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. Re-confirm dates before publishing if the registry updates its schedule.
Can I pursue both hotflow.dot and NicNames at once?
Yes. You can pre-order both hotflow.dot and NicNames on domain.pay at $100 each, and failed attempts are refundable, so pursuing two candidates is low-risk. This hedges your bet on hotflow.dot. Pre-order both at https://domain.pay/register.
For payroll disbursements, is .PAY useful for an invoice-payment portal?
Yes. .PAY can fit invoice-payment portals because it tells customers the link is about paying. Search options such as brand-specific or invoice-related labels on domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Confirm availability and premium status before adding the URL to invoices.
Can I get a free SSL certificate for hotflow.dot?
Yes. Free, automatically renewing certificates from Let's Encrypt work on hotflow.dot just like any other domain once DNS points to your host. Many hosting panels and CDNs provision and renew them for hotflow.dot with no manual steps. A valid certificate is required before browsers show the padlock.
Before choosing tap.pay, 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.
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.
