1999 – 2001
The original logo was an inscription ‘Neteller.com’, written in three different styles and two lines. Most letters, besides the domain bit, were capitalized. The ‘Net’ piece was written in bigger, black letters, while the other part of the name proper was in green smaller letters. The domain bit was written below the right tip of the wordmark in small elegant characters.
2001 – 2008
The updated logo also depicts the company’s name, although in a new way. It now uses a single, continuous style. The letters are bold, angular, fully capitalized and tilted. Many of them are merged into a single shape. It’s colored yellow with a black rim along its borders.
2008 – 2012
In 2008, they took that same shape and placed it into the center of a black rectangle. The letters were repainted white, but there weren’t many other changes.
2012 – Today
The 2012 logo features the very same wordmark style, except now fully colored in lime. There aren’t any other colors, and the appearance is identical.
Font
The wordmark of the minimalist logo is executed in a bold italicized sans-serif typeface and is written in all capitals. All the letters are connected between each other on its bottom line, creating a sense of a thick white underline.
Merge font of the nameplate is pretty close to the Lexis Alt Black Italic, which is a strong and modern geometric typeface with solid and confident lines.
Color
This brand’s main color has been a lime green shade for several years. The other common colors include grey and, earlier, black.
