The approvals mark another significant milestone in the evolution of Black Friday from a shopping event into a year-round global lifestyle, commerce, and consumer engagement platform. Together, the newly protected brands reinforce Empire License’s long-term vision of extending the Black Friday identity across artificial intelligence, retail, consumer loyalty, media, advertising, entertainment, licensing, and digital commerce.

The platform is designed for broad application across retail, financial services, e-commerce, travel, hospitality, restaurants, entertainment, and other consumer-focused industries seeking innovative approaches to customer engagement and retention.

Black Friday Select™ expands the Black Friday Lifestyle platform into the rapidly growing world of artificial intelligence and intelligent commerce.
The concept envisions an AI-powered shopping assistant capable of helping consumers discover products, compare features, locate promotions, identify value, and make more informed purchasing decisions across multiple retail categories.
As artificial intelligence continues reshaping how consumers search, shop, and purchase products, Black Friday Select™ is positioned as a consumer-focused commerce platform designed to complement the future of intelligent shopping experiences while creating new opportunities for retailers, brands, and strategic technology partners.
A GROWING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ECOSYSTEM
Together, Black Friday Loyalty Rewards Card™ and Black Friday Select™ demonstrate how one of the world’s most recognized consumer brands can evolve alongside advances in artificial intelligence, digital commerce, and changing consumer behavior.
