$cashtags - Post your "TAG" and "CASH" Domains

[Jason.tv]

I was at a tech meetup in Boca Raton, Florida and someone swiftly mentioned about "Cashtags"; I had no idea what they were.

I have been hesitant to post about Cashtags since I did not think it would have any relevance to domaining - this is not the case.

Fortune.com already posted wrote about it!

I registered Cashtag / io and Cashtags / io

Would be interesting to see what 3rd party applications this would be used for development.

This will be the ultimate way to send money. Much better than PayPal imo.

Thanks. Someone beat me to $domains.

The fact that it's free and the money goes right into your bank account is awesome!

And again, the registrars will be happy with domainers rushing out to reg any domain with cashtags, ct, etc etc.

But then, I am working on a site now (just need the logos redone to my liking).
Where domainers can get their own tags.
Who knew?

I see a few TMs on "cashtag" but they don't look to be Square's.

I actually thought about buying a cashtag domain. I'll pass after rethinking it! Could be a tm nightmare.

I don't see a way to play it via domains other than to reg "cashtag" domains... Not like "sending cash" is new. Think I will stay away, too, but am downloading the app so I can get my name before anyone else.

Also trying to think if there is any downside to having your "pay address" publicly known -- would think Square has thought of all the security issues beforehand!

Good luck getting a first name.

Nah - my first name is 3 letters. My whole first-last (7 letter) name is still available though.

A lot of interesting things are available, still. It's quite early.

Lots available but first names would be ideal or your business name.

I figure if this service takes off (which I think it's got a decent shot to) then I will set up a second one for my business. I wonder what limits the amount of accounts you can have? Maybe only the number of bank accounts.

I think it's limited to 1 per device, CC, and phone number.

Hard to choose just one with so many words available!

Thanks for the heads up, Jason.

Now -- does anyone see a market for the $Cashtags developing, as supposedly there is an underground-ish market for Twitter handles?

There is no way to transfer a cashtag.

There is no way to transfer a cashtag.

You could just change the underlying data: phone, CC, email, etc. to the buyer.
