IcoMoon FAQ: the quick answers
Ten questions that cover most of what people ask about IcoMoon: cost (the app is free, the Ultimate pack is $59 one-time), licensing, troubleshooting and where to find every icon's code. Each answer starts with the conclusion; the links go deeper.
Is IcoMoon free?
Yes — the generator app is completely free and needs no account. The IcoMoon Free set (491 icons) costs nothing. Only the premium packs and subscriptions are paid.
Can I use IcoMoon Free icons commercially?
Yes. The set is dual-licensed GPL / CC BY 4.0 — under CC BY 4.0 you just credit Keyamoon. A copy of the license ships inside our ZIP download.
Is the Ultimate pack a subscription?
No. It is a one-time $59 purchase: 1,500+ icons with SVG sources and lifetime access. Subscriptions are a separate option starting at $9 for 30 days.
How is IcoMoon different from Font Awesome?
IcoMoon is a build-your-own-font tool that accepts your own SVGs; Font Awesome is a bigger ready-made library with framework packages. Different jobs, honestly compared in our head-to-head.
My icons show as blank squares — why?
Almost always the font path: the url() in the generated CSS resolves relative to the CSS file, not the page. Check the network tab for a 404 on the font first.
How do I download all 491 free icons at once?
Grab the complete ZIP (455 KB) from our download page — SVGs, TTF, WOFF, WOFF2, generated CSS and the license in one file, no signup.
Where do I find an icon's unicode or CSS class?
The cheat sheet lists every name, unicode code point and CSS class in one filterable table with one-click copy; each icon page shows the same data with snippets.
What is selection.json and do I need it?
It is the IcoMoon app's project file — it stores your chosen glyphs, names and settings. Keep it: re-importing it restores your whole project for later edits.
Do I need an account to use the IcoMoon app?
No. The app runs in the browser without registration; projects are stored locally. Accounts and cloud storage only come with paid subscriptions.
Are there IcoMoon coupon codes?
As of 2026 there are no public coupon codes. Sites claiming otherwise are usually bait — we track the real situation on our coupon page.
