What this record means
The record shows that “AMERICAN EXPRESS” is a live, registered service mark owned by American Express Marketing & Development Corp., a Delaware corporation. The mark is on the Principal Register and covers a wide range of services in classes 035, 036, 038, 039, 041, 043, and 045, including business development, banking and payment card services, online forums, travel arrangements, event ticketing, lodging reservations, and concierge services for credit‑card customers. A similar name would raise the closest concern in any of these service areas, especially where the goods or services overlap with credit‑card or travel‑related offerings. The record does not grant control over every use of the wording; it applies only to the specified services. No prosecution history or enforcement actions appear in the supplied data. The most recent status event is the renewal noted on January 18, 2022. For someone considering a similar name, the existing registration presents a meaningful risk in any of the listed service categories.
