How do I protect my business name?
State entity registration, DBA registration, domain registration, and trademark protection serve different purposes. Businesses interested in broader brand protection can research trademark availability and federal or state registration options. Swyft Filings does not currently provide trademark registration services; customers seeking trademark registration can use Trademark Engine, a separate service.
Swyft Filings provides business-name resources and performs name checks as part of its filing process. A state name check focuses on whether a proposed entity name can be accepted under that state's naming rules; it does not determine whether the name is clear from every trademark, branding, domain-name, or marketplace conflict.
