The Typefaces

PayWise uses two complementary typefaces. Poppins is the workhorse — clean, geometric, and modern. Kalam is used for expressive, handwritten moments that add warmth and personality.

Brand Standards
Do's & Don'ts

Consistency builds trust. These guidelines ensure the PayWise brand communicates with clarity, energy, and credibility in every context.

Do's

🟢
Use the split-color logo Always render "Pay" in green and "Wise" in blue (or white on dark/colored backgrounds). The two-color wordmark is the core brand identifier.
🎨
Use the ring/donut motif Circular rings and overlapping donuts are the signature graphic device. Use them on backgrounds, social posts, and banners to reinforce brand DNA.
📸
Mix lifestyle photography with graphic elements Overlay brand rings on photos of real people — especially Caribbean faces using their phones. Grounds the brand in everyday life.
✏️
Use Poppins & Kalam together Poppins for all primary text. Kalam (handwritten) for accent phrases, callouts, or personality-driven headlines.
💬
Write like a real person Direct, punchy, conversational. "Bills? Handled." not "PayWise facilitates electronic bill payment services."
📱
Show the app in context Feature app screens alongside lifestyle imagery. Concrete UI screenshots build trust and demonstrate real functionality.

Don'ts

🚫
Don't stretch or recolor the logo Never alter the proportions of the wordmark or change the green/blue split to a single color, unless using an approved reverse-out (all white).
🚫
Don't use off-brand colors Avoid reds, oranges, purples, or colors not in the official palette. The green-to-blue spectrum is the visual identity.
🚫
Don't place the logo on busy backgrounds without contrast Always ensure legibility. Use a white card, colored block, or semi-transparent overlay if placing on photography.
🚫
Don't use generic stock imagery Avoid generic Western-looking stock photos. PayWise is Caribbean — use imagery reflecting Black, Afro-Caribbean, and Indo-Caribbean communities.
🚫
Don't use formal or corporate language PayWise speaks plainly and confidently. Avoid jargon like "leverage synergies" or overly formal financial language.
🚫
Don't use Arial, Roboto, or system fonts The brand font is Poppins. Using system fonts undermines the premium, consistent feel of all branded materials.

"You left work to pay a bill."
R

Empowering

PayWise gives people agency over their money. The language should make users feel capable, in control, and ahead.

"Your Money, Your Way."
