FACEBOOK

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is live and registered on the Principal Register under class 036, owned by Meta Platforms, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The registration covers financial transaction processing services, including clearing and reconciling transactions via computer and communication networks, electronic funds transfer services, and financial exchange services that provide a virtual currency for an online community. A similar name used in these or closely related financial services would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give Meta control over every use of the word “Facebook” in all contexts; it is limited to the specified services. The prosecution history is empty, indicating no descriptiveness refusal or supplemental register movement. The most recent maintenance event was the renewal on February 26, 2024, and no other consequential dates are listed. The supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name in financial transaction or virtual currency services, this record suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
