Sad story, Fontdeck are closing down. Here’s the email they’ve sent to customers. They haven’t yet published the promised blog post.
Fontdeck is Retiring
We have taken the difficult decision to close Fontdeck
We’re extremely proud of what we’ve achieved over the past 6 years in terms of bringing wonderful fonts to the web, but the time has come to say goodbye.
We go into more detail as to why on our blog, but for the time being you need to know that as of 1 December 2015 we will not be accepting any new accounts, project upgrades, or font purchases. Fonts will stop being served on 1 December 2016.
Don’t Panic
Your account and webfonts will continue to be active until 1 December 2016.
We hope this will give you plenty of time to find an alternative source for your webfonts. To help with this we’ve put together a comprehensive migration chart showing where you can get webfont licenses for each of our foundry partners.
Project renewals and charges
If you are an existing Fontdeck customer, we have automatically extended your annual license, at no extra cost, until the service retires on 1 December 2016. This means no further payments will be taken from you.
More support
We’ve put together a comprehensive help page which we hope will answer all of your questions about how the Fontdeck retirement will affect you, your account and your websites. We will continue to provide support until 1 December 2016.
Thank you
Thank you for supporting Fontdeck and our foundry partners over the past 6 years. We’re proud to have been a part of the webfont revolution, and we look forward to seeing where typography on the web heads in the future.
