WELLS FARGO

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “WELLS FARGO” is no longer active; it was cancelled on August 16, 2024 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is Wells Fargo & Company, a Delaware corporation. The mark was registered on the Principal Register in 2004 for class 009 goods, specifically calculators, mouse pads, wrist rests for computers, carrying cases for electronic personal organizers, compact disc cases, binocular case holders, eyeglass cases, magnets, and prepaid telephone calling cards that are magnetically encoded. A similar name would raise the closest concern for those same types of electronic accessories and related items. The record does not give the mark control over every use of the wording, only over the goods listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was registered, renewed, and eventually cancelled; no opposition or court actions are recorded. For someone thinking of a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the goods listed remain a potential point of concern.
