Best guess: Tencent, the major Chinese tech and payments group behind WeChat Pay and other fintech services. The label is an exact match to the well-known trademark, which fits the priority-window trademark requirement very strongly.

Frequently asked questions about itsu.pay
Does .PAY require payment-related use after registration for digital wallets?
Yes. The LRP policy says .PAY LRP names must be used in connection with payment-related services, and failure to demonstrate such use may lead to suspension or cancellation. Check the current path at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register.
Does itsu.pay work like a normal website address?
Yes, itsu.pay resolves through the standard DNS just like any .com or .org address. You can point itsu.pay at a website, a payment processor, or a redirect, and browsers treat it normally. The only difference is the payments-focused .PAY suffix.
How can a marketplace use a .PAY domain for loan repayments?
A marketplace can use .PAY for seller payouts, buyer checkout, escrow, billing or payment support flows. Generate and verify names through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. Choose a label that customers will recognize as official and safe.
Will Google penalize itsu.pay for being a new gTLD?
No. Google does not penalize new gTLDs; itsu.pay is evaluated on the same quality and relevance signals as a .com. Any perceived ranking difference comes from content, links, and technical health — not from itsu.pay's extension. Build authority normally.
Can a reserved .PAY name become available later for online checkout?
The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.
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.
