What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Meta Platforms, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The registration covers pre‑paid gift card services, specifically issuing gift card certificates that may be redeemed for goods or services, and also lists cancelled classes for magnetically encoded gift cards and paper gift cards. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the gift‑card services area, especially where the name is used to identify or sell such cards. The record does not give Meta control over every use of the word “Facebook”; it is limited to the goods and services listed. No prosecution history or supplemental register activity is shown, and the latest status event is the renewal noted on November 14, 2023. There are no visible enforcement signals in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that using “Facebook” for gift‑card services could conflict with this active registration.
