Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) is promising for applications in many fields. However, most systems involving CPL are within the visible range; near‐infrared (NIR) CPL‐active materials, especially those that exhibit high glum values and can be controlled spatially and temporally, are rare. Herein, dynamic NIR‐CPL with a glum value of 2.5×10−2 was achieved through supramolecular coassembly and energy‐transfer strategies. The chiral assemblies formed by the coassembly between adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and a pyrene derivative exhibited a red CPL signal (glum of 10−3). The further introduction of sulfo‐cyanine5 resulted in a energy‐transfer process, which not only led to the NIR CPL but also increased the glum value to 10−2. Temporal control of these chiral assemblies was realized by introducing alkaline phosphatase to fabricate a biomimetic enzyme‐catalyzed network, allowing the dynamic NIR CPL signal to be turned on. Based on these enzyme‐regulated temporally controllable dynamic CPL‐active chiral assemblies, a multilevel information encryption system was further developed. This study provides a pioneering example for the construction of dynamic NIR CPL materials with the ability to perform temporal control via the supramolecular assembly strategy, which is expected to aid in the design of supramolecular complex systems that more closely resemble natural biological systems. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‐triggered transient supramolecular chiral assemblies that exhibit dynamic near‐infrared (NIR) circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) with a high glum value of 2.5×10−2 were developed by coupling assembly‐encoded emission to an enzyme‐catalyzed reaction network. Exploiting the dynamic NIR CPL enabled multilevel advanced information encryption to be achieved.
