Our Licenses

We’re passionate about providing accessible and fair licensing options for everyone. We get that licensing can be a bit tricky, so we’ve made it easier by breaking ours into three simple cateogries.

Specialist Licenses

Most of the common uses of our typefaces are covered with one of the three licensing models described above. However, we do require additional licensing in those cases where our typefaces become a significant part of a commercial product or enterprise.

  1. Editable Software Embedding

    Fonts are used in a software product, which allows the end user to interact with the fonts, e.g. in a search field or other user-editable dynamic text.

  2. Commercial Template Licensing

    Fonts to be embedded in a software or web application, that can be used as an option for customizing an end product, e.g. business cards, t-shirts, etc...

  3. Commercial OEM License

    License to include the fonts in any commercial products, whether software or hardware, of a company or organization.

  4. Broadcasting License

    Fonts to be included prominently within a feature film, video on demand platforms, or as a part of a TV program identity, or motion graphics for online deployment.

  5. Merchandising License

    Use letters and illustrations embodied in the font files on products for sale such as clothing, bags, and other merchandising.

Trial & Educational Licenses

We understand that choosing the right typeface often requires testing it in real-world design situations, so this license allows the use of our fonts in concepts, mock-ups, pitches, and internal presentations. We are happy to support typography education by allowing students to use our fonts free of charge for academic coursework and student projects.
