Frequently asked questions about yellowhammer.dot

When does the .PAY LRP1 period begin for point-of-sale payments?

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.

How do I point yellowhammer.dot at a Shopify or Wix store?

Hosted platforms give you a target — usually a CNAME or specific A records — that you add to the DNS of yellowhammer.dot, plus they auto-provision SSL. Follow your platform's connect-domain guide using yellowhammer.dot as the custom domain. Edit the records for yellowhammer.dot from /domains.

How do I register tap.pay if it matches my trademark when choosing tap.pay?

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.

Should I pre-order yellowhammer.dot now or wait for general availability?

Pre-ordering yellowhammer.dot now queues your attempt for the first day of general availability, which matters if others want the yellowhammer.dot name. Waiting risks someone else registering it first. A failed pre-order is refundable per policy, so review terms on /pricing.

What .PAY domain style is best for trust and conversion for point-of-sale payments?

merchant.pay may be a useful .PAY direction if it matches your brand and payment journey, but availability is not guaranteed. Check and pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Prefer simple labels that customers can remember and trust.

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.
