Using our brand
Logo
The Tapcart logo consists of two elements, the logomark (symbol) and the logotype using the company name with proprietary letterforms. The logomark can be used on its own, but the logotype is always paired with the mark.
Primary logo (light mode)
Use the black version of our logo as the first option, especially with light colored backgrounds.
Primary logo (dark mode)
Use the desert version of our logo as needed, especially with dark colored backgrounds.
Logo spacing
The recommended clearance space must never be reduced, but can be increased. It's equal to the width of the letter ‘c’ in Tapcart.
Logomark
The main role of the logomark is to add mnemonic value to the logo and to operate as a branding element wherever the context doesn’t permit to use the full logo. Some situations where you can use the symbol alone are: App icons, favicons, and avatars on social media.
Primary logomark - light mode
Use the black version of our logomark with light colored backgrounds.
Primary logomark - dark mode
Use the desert version of our logomark with dark colored backgrounds.
Spacing
The recommended clearance space must never be reduced, but can be increased. It's equal to the width of the negative space in the symbol.
Cobranding
The recommended clearance when displaying the Tapcart logo next to another logo is to double the height and double the width of the letter ‘c’ in the logo.
The x-heights for both logotypes should be equal.
