Our Licensing
Quick jump:
“I want to use the font
non commercially.”
All of our fonts are free for personal use. That means you can use the font for:
your wedding invitations
your personal blog (without advertising income or simliar)
private letters
and everything else, as long as no direct or indirect profit is sought with the project.
“I want to use the font
commercially.”
As long as the font is not clearly marked as “Free for commercial use”, you’ll need a license in this case. Otherwise it can be used commercially without a license. Anyway, donations are always appreciated. You can donate via this link.

I am buying the font for someone else (e.g. a client)
Please note that the license must be written to your client, not to you or your agency. That means the “more / less than 10 people” rule applies on your client, not on you / your agency.
Will the license expire?
No, none of our licenses you have bought will expire.
I want to use the font on my website, what license do I need?
If your company/client has less than 10 employees you can use the standard license to create designs including the font. Only if you want to embed the font on your website you’ll need a multimedia license.
Our company has more than 9 employees but only 1-5 will use the font.
In that case you still need an extended license, since our licensing agreement depends on the strength of the company, not on the amount of users who install the font. Contact us at license@shapedfonts.com.
