Understanding Our Licensing

Each license grants specific permissions regarding the use of the font software, and understanding these permissions is crucial. To help you make the best choice, we’ve outlined our End User License Agreements (EULA’s) below.

What exactly is a font license?

When you buy a font, it’s different from purchasing a physical item like a book. Owning a book means it’s your property. However, when you purchase a font license, you’re actually paying for the right to **use** the font under the terms set out in the specific license agreement. Even though the font file is on your device, it remains the intellectual property (IP) of the creator or seller.

What is the standard license on Work day Fonts?

Licenses purchased by individuals allow up to three users to install the font(s) on their devices.
When a business purchases a font license from us, it can be used across a single organisation, entity, company, or registered office at one address. This means that there are no user limits as long as all users are within the licensed organisation.
If you need to use the license across multiple locations, you must purchase an enterprise license. To do so, please fill out our Custom Licensing form and a team member will contact you to discuss your requirements further.
Each license allows for one commercial project with no restrictions on the number of personal projects.
Our Standard license covers the below parameters - anything outside this use will require a commercial license which can be acquired by filling out our commercial license form.

Desktop - 1-3 Users
Web Use - Up to 50,000 Monthly Visits
App & eBook - 1 App/eBook

who is the licensee?

If you’re an individual using the font for your work, whether commercial or non-commercial, you are the licensee. If you’re purchasing the font for a client as a freelancer, studio, or individual, the client is the licensee. You can still buy the font on their behalf, but you must include their details at checkout and choose the correct license to meet their needs, such as selecting the appropriate tier of monthly page views for a web license. We strongly recommend that you thoroughly read our End User License Agreements before purchasing. You can find them below.

corporate licensing

A Corporate License grants access to all the licenses available in our store, with unlimited users and unlimited instances where the font appears in communications and outputs. Please fill out the form and one of our team members will reach out to discuss your needs further.
