The logos must follow a minimal, clean and modern design format.&nbsp;

A subtle use of icon is recommended however the graphic elements should not be too distracting.&nbsp;

It is strongly recommended to create all Logos with a white background. Colored backgrounds should be avoided. Dark/ Black colors are no longer allowed in Logo designs.

Do not include ".com" inside the Logo. For other TLDs, if it improves the readability, it is recommended to include the extension inside the logo.

The logo should not touch the edge of the canvas, and should be centered in the middle with enough space around to make the logo clear. At the same time, the Logo should not be too small relative to the dimensions of the canvas.

Atom marketplace has implemented the opportunity for domain sellers and logo designers to communicate with each other. We believe this new feature will positively improve the overall quality of the logo designs and help domain sellers receive a logo design they're excited about.

Please Note: If you are not approved as a logo designer for the Premium Marketplace, it doesn't mean your designs are low-quality, it just means they are not a good fit for the Marketplace. Unfortunately, we are not able to share feedback on our decision if you are not approved as a Marketplace designer.
