Checkfront is a booking management platform for tours, activities, rentals and accommodations, founded in 2010 and based in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.[1] The company’s visual identity consists of a wordmark paired with an abstract symbol, rendered primarily in blue and white.
Design and History
Checkfront launched its booking software in June 2010.[1] The company’s logo has been updated at least once since then. A June 2019 change to the Checkfront WordPress plugin included the note “Update Checkfront Logo to use new image,” pointing to a file named Checkfront_Color.png hosted on the company’s website.[2]
In June 2023, Checkfront merged with Australian booking software company Rezdy, and European company Regiondo subsequently joined the combination.[3] According to reporting at the time, Checkfront and Rezdy planned to continue operating under their own individual brands with no plans to combine them.[4] The Checkfront mark itself remained in use following the merger.
Meaning and Symbolism
Checkfront does not publish an official explanation of its logo’s symbolism. The current mark combines a wordmark with an abstract graphic element, and the company’s own branding documentation shows the logo used in a blue color treatment.[2] Beyond the observable use of blue and white in the logo files distributed by the company, no verified source documents a specific intended meaning for the symbol or its colors.
Typography and Design
No official source identifies the typeface used in the Checkfront wordmark. The company’s branding guidelines, if they exist publicly, have not been published. What is verifiable is that Checkfront distributes its logo as a color PNG file for integration into its own software and partner materials.[2] The logo also appears in a graphite or monochrome icon version used as a favicon within Checkfront’s Site Builder product.[5]
