I’m trying to start an e-wallet in the UK, like Cash App in the US but I’m struggling to find a good name for it.

Any suggestions welcome!

    Yes it is, very. My team has spent the last 3 weeks coming up with a new name for our startup because the one we wanted was in the same USPTO class.

    We finally got it today, no guarantees until we do all the trademark searches etc, but looks promising.

    Then there’s the whole domain name issue as well, lol.

      It’s tricky, in the UK we also have protected names that we can’t use, like “Bank” and “Fund” unless you have the right license.

      😂 Domain name is the first thing to check. I see a lot of startups putting prefixes on their domain names, instead of “wallet.co.uk” it’s “getwallet” or “trywallet”.

        Yes we got the domain name luckily, we didn’t realise how difficult the process would be because other names we used just worked without a problem.
