I’m an individual (not part of a company), what license should I buy?

Our licenses cover individual and company usages of the font software we sell on Type Department. See our licensing page for your answer. 

I’m a freelancer who is purchasing the font for a client job. What license should I buy?

In this case, at the checkout, you will need to fill in the client’s details, including their tax (VAT) number if they are registered and your own (usually as the billing address if you are purchasing on their behalf). You’ll also need to check whether this order is for a company and how many locations will require the font usage, this will determine the correct price for the order.

If a font is updated, will I have access to it in the future? 

Yes. If a seller has added a series of characters for example or updated the kerning, we’ll re-upload the font(s) to the store and if you’ve purchased this particular font(s), you’ll get an email with a link to quickly download the new version. Make sure you remove the current one you have before trying to install the new version. 

Are there any recurring costs?

No. All of the standard licensing types offered on this website are one-time fees.
