WELLS FARGO

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “WELLS FARGO” is a dead, cancelled service mark owned by Wells Fargo & Company, a Delaware corporation. The mark was registered on November 28, 2017 for services in class 036, specifically financing loans for inventory, machinery, vehicles and equipment and providing lease financing for the same. Because the mark is cancelled under Section 8 for failure to file a declaration, it no longer has enforceable rights, but the history still indicates that the owner once claimed protection over those financial services. The closest concern for a new name would be in the same insurance and financial services area, especially loan or lease financing. The record does not show any enforcement actions, and the latest status event is the cancellation on June 7, 2024. For someone looking to use a similar name, the risk is limited to that specific financial services niche, and no broader control over the wording is established.
