Logo Usage

The BlackBull Markets logo should always have proper spacing around it.
The logo’s container should never touch the edges of its medium (e.g. the edge of a poster).
No element should cross over, overlay, or touch either the logo itself or its container.
The minimum spacing around the logo should be the height of “B” in the BlackBull wordmark. The space should start either from the edge of the container or from the logo itself when there is no container.
For our creatives, the BlackBull logo can be used over an image/photo only if the photo has a black overlay of 40-70% depending on the overall brightness of the photo.
Minimum of 40px height of the word and logomark
For mobile or creatives that are too small or narrow for our primary logo, we can go ahead and use the badge logo
21px minimum height for the bull logo only

Font family

BlackBull Market’s official font is Mont. Please reach out to the marketing team for the download link. This font is licensed to BlackBull Markets and should not be used for any creative outside of the company.

Alternative Font family

For language translations where Mont cannot be used, we use Montserrat and Noto Sans Arabic specifically for Arabic. It would be appreciated if the single-storey “a” instead of the double-storey “a“ is used but not required.
