Metaverse trademark filings just keep on coming into the US Patent and Trademark Office, this time from the Visa Credit card company. The filing dated 22nd of October encompasses many of the same trademarks as this week’s earlier metaverse filings by PayPal and Western Union.
This is not Visa’s first foray into Web3 technology as they recently announced their first ever Web3 Loyalty program with ShopNEXT. It shows further commitment by large Fintech companies to a future metaverse.
