| Identity | email email verification plus a Google reCAPTCHA, with no phone step in the documented flow: the manual describes the application as email verification then reCAPTCHA then apply, and records that no phone step appears in that flow. Whether a Korean mobile number is demanded at member level is not established, because the signup form itself was not opened. No card is stated for the free plan |

| Egress | Traffic is metered at 15 GB a month on the free hosting; extra traffic is sold as 50 GB for KRW 3,000 a month or a 100 GB top-up for KRW 10,000. free allowance: 15 GB per month |

| Composes with | A Korean-region PHP and MySQL host with no card is a durable place to keep a small service and its database, and it chains with any free compute that can call an HTTP endpoint: the compute does the work, Dothome keeps the state and the domain, and neither needs a card. |
|---|
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
|---|
| Notes | Korea's most durable free allowance, running since the company's founding and still advertised as lifetime. Settling it needs a signup attempt. The paid sibling, at KRW 500 a month, is the cheapest route found to attach an owned domain to a free host. |
