SECURESTEPSerial 85061104 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Nextep, Inc.
Class 036 - Insurance & Financial
Filed Jun 11, 2010
Registered Jun 07, 2011
The record shows that “SECURESTEP” is a cancelled Principal Register service mark owned by Nextep, Inc., a corporation organized in Oklahoma; the registration was cancelled on Jan 12 2018 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The mark was limited to Class 036, covering “administration of employee benefit plans and programs concerning insurance and finance, workers’ compensation disability insurance, employee pension and investment plans,” so a similar name used in the same insurance‑or‑financial‑services context would present the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Nextep control over every possible use of the word “securestep” outside that narrow field. Because the mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register examination sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by others, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use a similar name for employee‑benefit or insurance services.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
