Secret Club™ 2026 Updates

Greetings, folks!

I write to you today with a quick—but impactful—update to our Secret Club™ offering to kick off the new year. Starting today, an annual SC subscription will include access to our entire font library, as well as any future releases while you're a member.

Why the update?

It certainly makes the pitch for joining the club much clearer and streamlines my ad hoc update process (When I originally started the club, I included all the fonts we had made up to that point, but I had no subscription engine in place to make that a recurring thing—now we do!).

Also, you have a ton of choices when it comes to finding fonts to use out there. I get it—it's competitive and some days it feels downright insane to try and make a living by selling fonts! I like the idea of a subscription model that goes beyond just font downloads, but one that doesn't work in a typical manner.

How will it work?

You'll be able to download and use any of our fonts. If you cancel your subscription, you may still use whatever you've installed while you were a member, you'll just miss out on future releases. Not to mention the other perks which have been there all along:

• Secret Club™ community access - Our growing, private Slack channel for sharing type and design stuff
• 25% OFF all goods - Tees, hats, decals, etc.
• 40% OFF individual font purchases - Helpful if you need to purchase a typeface outright for a client or specific project
• Monthly virtual meetups
• Early access + bonus extras

All of that + all the fonts for $60/year, billed annually. I’ve kept the price simple and intentional—more than a single font purchase, less than buying a few over time, and enough to help support this tiny, independent operation.

I'm sure you have questions, so here's the nitty gritty from the FAQ:

Do I get access to all fonts?
Yes. While you’re a Secret Club member, you can download and use any font in the SimpleBits library, including future releases.

What happens if I cancel my membership?
You keep and can continue using any fonts you downloaded while you were a member. You just won’t receive updates or future releases after your membership ends.

Do I lose the right to use fonts if I leave the Club?
No. Fonts you’ve already downloaded remain licensed for use. There’s no expiration on past work.

Is this a subscription font library?
Not exactly. The Secret Club is a support-based membership that includes font access while you’re a member—plus permanent use of anything you download during that time.

Can I still buy fonts individually?
Absolutely. Individual font purchases are still available, and members receive a hefty discount!

Is there a monthly option?
No. The Secret Club is billed annually to keep things simple and sustainable.

What license is included for all of the fonts?
Fonts downloaded during membership come with a perpetual Standard License (good for solo folks and companies up to 20 employees) for any personal or commercial use; continued membership is only required for updates and new releases. See our Super Simple License Agreement for more info.

(Let me know if anything is unclear or if you have any other feedback or suggestions—I'd love to hear from you!)

Thanks for reading as always—your support means everything.

Cheers,
