Brand Guidelines
As our customer base grows, we thought it would be useful to provide a set of branding guidelines and accompanying logos for the partners and merchants who want to add the availability of our services to their existing marketing and communication materials. The Planet Payment Logo has two versions: one for print and another for on-screen/digital applications.
The logo is comprised of a combination of blue:PMS 288 and gray: Cool Gray 10. The logo may also be reproduced in one color: PMS 288, Cool Gray No. 10, PMS 425, Black, or White. The typography of the logo is the font Univers 65. The Planet Payment logo works best on a bright white background and is never to be reproduced smaller than 1/2’’ in size.
