Registry Connection

Connecting to the Registry

A self-hosted gateway can optionally register with the Commerce Registry so LLM clients can resolve your brand or products to your gateway endpoint.

Registration is optional. A self-hosted gateway works without it if you provide your gateway URL directly to clients.

Steps

1. In Gateway Console, open /registry.
2. Set your Commerce Registry base URL (for example, the Better Data hosted registry at https://registry.commercegateway.io, or your own compliant deployment).
3. Provide your domain and public gateway endpoint for verification.
4. Complete domain verification — typically a DNS TXT record on _commerce-gateway.{your-domain} or a token served at /.well-known/commerce-gateway-verify.json (see the registration spec).
5. After verification, your gateway can appear in registry discovery and resolution results.

Using the Better Data hosted registry

The hosted registry at registry.commercegateway.io can be used by self-hosted gateways for discovery. Enterprise features (analytics, priority listing, and similar) may require a hosted plan.
