PURPLE
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that the “PURPLE” service mark is cancelled, with the last meaningful event being a Section 8 cancellation on August 28 2015 because the registrant failed to file the required declaration; the owner listed is IDT NETHERLANDS, B.V. (Puerto Rico Branch). The registration covered only “prepaid telephone calling card and telephone debit card services” in International Class 036, so a similar name used for financial‑type services in that niche would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “PURPLE.” No Supplemental Register activity appears, and the prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 lapse, or other enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a comparable name in the same prepaid‑card financial space.
