Free Credit Card Icons For Online-Shops

Advertisement

Credit card icons are an essential part of every online-shop. They are often used to indicate available payment conditions and purchasing options. The clearer they are presented in the online-shop, the easier it is for potential customers to figure out if they actually can pay online in this shop. Therefore when it comes to the design of an online-shop there is no way to get around using some credit card icons.

If you need some specific credit card icons — for instance the icons of a regional bank in your country, make sure to visit the official site of the bank first to get the most recent icons. They are usually presented in the sections titled “logo center”, “brand materials”, “media center” etc. Credit cards may also look differently depending on the country they are supposed to be used in.

    Please note that those VISA logos are old and not used any more (the ones with the blue bar [PANTONE 286] on top and gold bar [PANTONE 137] on bottom).

    Good stuff though! (c:

    Interessant wären auch Icons / Logos für weitere Bezahlverfahren wie Überweisung, Bankeinzug, per Rechnung, wenn man die verschiedenen Verfahren illustrieren möchte. Nicht nur die Kreditkartenzahlung.

    Smashing Magazine is well-renowned for publishing useful compilation after compilation in all sorts of specialized, yet useful areas — this is certainly a fine example. Thanks for these free credit card icons, I don’t need any at the moment but have taken note to come back.

    On a related note, however, are these all compliant with the original trademarks? I’m not intimately familiar with how restrictive these companies are with usage of their logos, but am certainly curious.

    T’care! =)

    More icons for debit cards and e-checks would be useful… just like Dave Ramsey, I hate credit cards.

    I don’t hate credit cards. I bill my advertising and essentially every other bill to my american express card. I earn a free plane ticket about every two years, plus i don’t have to pay for rental car insurance when I travel, and everything I buy on my amex has the warranty doubled. I am sure there is also some price-matching service with it but I haven’t cared enough to look into it.
