Meta has submitted five trademark applications in the United States for what appears to be new digital platform dubbed Meta Pay. The trademark applications, filed on May 13, described Meta Pay as an “online social networking service for investors allowing financial trades and exchange of digital currency, virtual currency, cryptocurrency, digital and blockchain assets, digital tokens, [and] crypto tokens.” Apart from payment and trading, Meta Pay could also include digital asset lending and investment services, per other details in the trademark filing.
