APPLE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “APPLE” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Apple Inc., a corporation organized in California. The registration covers class 036, specifically “extension of retail credit services for the purchase of computers and related accessories.” A similar name used in that same or closely related financial services area would raise the closest concern. This record does not give Apple Inc. control over every use of the word “Apple” in all contexts; the protection is limited to the goods and services listed. The prosecution history is empty, indicating no descriptiveness refusal or supplemental register movement. The latest maintenance event is the renewal noted on August 12, 2024. No oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name in the same credit‑service niche, the risk is meaningful and should be weighed carefully.
