Skriftkompani Font Licensing Guide
Licensing Guide
Font Licensing Overview
Skriftkompani provides licenses for companies of all sizes and needs. We base licenses on your company’s total number of employees, since the typeface represents your entire business, not just those who install the font. For example, if your logo uses our typeface, it becomes part of your brand everywhere. Using this single metric makes licensing simple and helps you stay compliant as your company grows.
Ownership, License Owners, and Agencies
Skriftkompani acts as the exclusive distributor and licensing agent for the fonts, which are owned by their respective designers. When you buy a license, you receive the right to use the fonts, but ownership and all intellectual property rights remain with the designers. The license is only for the License Owner named in the license. Each client or brand needs its own license. Agencies and freelancers must make sure every client has a valid license. If you would like to assist your client in selecting licenses, complete the process in our online store and press 'checkout'. You can then copy and send the Stripe payment link directly to your client for payment. The License Owner can share the font with one designer or agency working on their behalf. If more people need access, you will need extra licenses. Pricing depends on the License Owner’s size, including the total number of employees, freelancers, and contractors. If the License Owner grows or their use changes, please contact Skriftkompani to upgrade the license.
