Best guess: SWIFT’s Sibos event. "Sibos" is the long-running banking/payments conference strongly associated with SWIFT, and a priority-window .pay registration would fit a trademarked finance brand/event.

Frequently asked questions about carsandparts.pay
What should I do first if I want a .PAY domain for BNPL checkout for a regional bank?
Go to domain.pay and enter the .PAY label you want: https://domain.pay/register. The website checks availability and helps you choose between pre-order, trademark fast-track, or a different name if the label is already taken or premium.
Why does carsandparts.pay have special eligibility requirements?
Because .PAY is positioned for payment and financial services, the registry behind carsandparts.pay may set eligibility and validation expectations that ordinary TLDs do not. This helps keep the namespace aligned with trusted financial use. domain.pay can walk you through what typically applies at https://domain.pay/register.
Can an ecommerce brand using Stripe or another processor apply for .PAY in LRP1 for fraud prevention?
An ecommerce or gateway business using a payment processor may be closer to the LRP1 eligibility concept, but the registry rules still control. Start at domain.pay to choose the correct path and verify current requirements: https://domain.pay/register. Separate licensing issues remain legal questions.
Can NicNames secure carsandparts.pay as a trademark holder?
If NicNames holds a registered trademark for carsandparts, it can typically use a TMCH SMD file to claim carsandparts.pay via trademark-priority registration before general availability. This is a common path for brand protection. domain.pay manages the process; start at https://domain.pay/register.
What if my trademark has spaces or special characters and I want .PAY when choosing wallet.pay?
.PAY Sunrise follows identical-match rules for the trademark text, including how spaces and some special characters are handled. Do not guess the label; check it through domain.pay and use the trademark path if eligible: https://domain.pay/register. A valid TMCH/SMD record may be required.
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.
