Everything a journalist needs to describe the product accurately, including the parts we are not yet allowed to claim.
Boilerplate
Depozit is a Kuwaiti financial technology company building a guarantee-backed Visa Platinum card for hotel, car-rental and service deposits. Instead of requiring a cash deposit, a salary transfer or collateral, Depozit guarantees the merchant's hold — 90% of it, to a KD 500 ceiling — for a flat KD 80 a year, itemised across four Islamic finance contracts. The product has no credit line, no revolving balance and no interest in either direction.
Current status: Registration with the Central Bank of Kuwait is in progress. We are not yet authorised to issue cards. Our four-contract structure has been submitted to an independent Sharia Supervisory Board for ruling. BIN sponsorship is under negotiation with a Visa principal member.

Coverage
Press coverage is listed here with a link to each piece, once there is any.
We do not display publication logos without an article behind them — a logo with no piece behind it implies an endorsement the publication never gave.
Logo and lockups
Five lockups, and the rule for each. Use them as supplied — do not recolour, rotate, stretch, add effects, or re-type the wordmark in another face.
Horizontal
The default. Headers, documents, anywhere with width to spare.
Stacked
Square placements: store listings, avatars, social profiles.
Stacked with tagline
Where the promise needs saying: covers, decks, signage. Never below 120px wide — the tagline stops being legible.
All white
Knockout on photography, video, and the navy field. 40px and up only.
All black
One-colour print, engraving, fax, and contract stationery.
Palette
Three colours. Navy leads the interface; gold accents it.
- Deep Navy — #12203C
- Ink, primary action, dark surfaces. The voice of the brand.
- Antique Gold — #B08D3F
- Accent only: rules, figures, the mark's milling. Never body text on a light surface — it measures 3.1:1.
- Champagne Gold — #E6D3A3
- Tints, warm light, and the primary action in dark mode, where it measures 11:1 on navy.
- Typeface
- Satoshi, one family throughout. Plus Jakarta Sans is the metric-compatible stand-in where Satoshi is not licensed.
Using our name and mark
Use the wordmark and the D mark as supplied, without recolouring, rotating, stretching, or adding effects. The wordmark is supplied as outlines and must not be re-typed in another face.
Please describe the product as a guarantee-backed card, not as a credit card. It has no credit line, and the distinction is the whole product.
