Design.com Review · 2026 : Pricing, Features & Alternatives

The free pack is called the Standard Logo Pack. The file downloaded and opened on 9 September 2026 contained JPG, PNG, SVG, EPS and PDF, on a solid or transparent background, with or without padding, plus Icon Only, Text Only and Greyscale variants. No watermark on the file we opened. So the vector files (SVG, EPS, PDF) really are handed over without payment. An account is the condition: an email address, or a Google or Facebook sign-in, is required as soon as you want to edit or download, even for a logo carrying the FREE badge.

The route observed: create an account with an email, Google or Facebook, then go through a packages screen where the paid option is preselected, so the free pack has to be chosen actively. The order is confirmed with an order number even at zero euros, a few optional offers follow, and the download screen then hands over the full pack: JPG, PNG, SVG, EPS and PDF, on a solid or transparent background, with or without margin, plus Icon Only, Text Only and Greyscale variants.

There is no public pricing page: /pricing, /plans and /maker/pricing all return 404. The tiers only appear at checkout. Design.com publishes the Premium plan at $9 a month, and the screen served on 14 September 2026 offered a single Premium Account below that list price: $5 a month billed monthly, or $3 a month billed annually, which means $36 taken in one go. Payment by card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) or PayPal. The vendor separately advertises a four-tier grid, but that is not what the checkout served.

Not quite, as tested on 14 September 2026. Presentations come from the Presentation category, as structured decks of five to eight slides (pitch, company profile, business proposal, marketing strategy, cafe pitch, financial accounting), rendered automatically in the account's branding, which you then fill in yourself. The editor covers text, backgrounds, shapes, images, charts, QR codes and animation, and exports to PNG, PDF, SVG and PPTX, with no native Google Slides export. Downloading, however, is paid: exporting a seven-slide deck to PPTX opened an "Upgrade to a Premium Account" screen and nothing reached the downloads folder.

Comparison bounded to a panel of seven logo makers whose public pages were read on 14 September 2026, without an account. On that panel, two tools hand over the vector file without payment: Wix Logo Maker (now Wixel), which writes "download your custom logo in high-resolution, vector format for free" and lists SVG on its free plan, at the cost of a mandatory account before you even see the logo and a quota of 120 AI credits a month; and Design.com, whose Standard Logo Pack contains SVG, EPS and PDF. Adobe Express is a separate case: SVG is available free there by vectorising a PNG or JPG you already exported, not as a vector export of the project. Elsewhere the vector file is the paywall trigger: PNG only on the free tier at Logo.com (Brand Plan at 2.59 EUR a month billed yearly, 31.08 EUR for the first year, for the 42 SVG and AI files); SVG restricted to paid plans at Canva (Pro at 144 USD a year); low resolution on the free tier at Tailor Brands, which writes "if you want a high-res Vector file, you will need to pay" without publishing the price of its logo tier; vector included from the entry tier at Brandmark, but that tier is paid, 35 USD once. At Looka, whose pricing page was read in a browser on 14 September 2026 (curl is refused with a 403, a browser is not), the vector file is paid: the Basic package at 35 USD one time contains a single low-resolution PNG file, while PNG, EPS, SVG and PDF come with the Premium package at 72 USD one time, or with the Brand Kit subscription at 96 USD a year. Looka states it plainly: making logos is free, you only pay when you are happy.
