 "skip_if": "you need several logos or want to explore many directions, since each logo is its own subscription; you want to know the exact price before giving an email address; or you need several team members on one account",
 "honest_knock": "There is no price list: the FAQ gives 'typical' monthly figures, prints the same US$34 for Value and Premium, and the real price only appears after you hand over an email address. Each subscription covers one logo, and a second logo means a second subscription. The refund rules are tight: the FAQ calls digital purchases non-refundable and allows a refund of a renewal only within 7 days, and the terms add that it only applies if you did not use the service in that period (30 days for an annual or longer plan). Designs made with the AI tools cannot be downloaded on a free account, and there is one user per account.",

  "notes": "(read 2026-10-26 in a browser on design.com/faqs/purchasing; design.com/pricing returns a 404 and there is no public price table) Design.com sells logo packages as a monthly or annual subscription, and every package includes one logo. The purchasing FAQ gives typical prices only: Starter (Logo Pack) typically US$25 a month, Value (Logo Pack + Website) typically US$34 a month, and Premium (Logo Pack + Website + More, adding the Link in Bio creator and digital business card maker) also printed as typically US$34 a month, the same figure as Value. The FAQ says annual plans give better rates without stating them, and that support can provide a discount code. The real price appears only at checkout, after you enter an email address to download a logo, so we could not read it. A free account gives access to free tools, but designs made with the AI tools cannot be downloaded without paying. Printing, domain names and professional design support cost extra. Payment is by card or PayPal in nine currencies (USD, AUD, GBP, EUR, INR, PHP, BRL, MXN, ZAR); other currencies are charged in US dollars.",
