Protocore is a software company: we design, build and operate software for payment companies, public institutions and product teams. The work spans software engineering, payments, digital public services, and hardware & IoT. Six products run on one core — ledger, accounts, and cards — from Protocore Pay, a whitelabel banking app platform, to hosted checkout, virtual IBANs, and card issuing. Each runs in production demos and is licensed as software. All of it renders on PDS, Protocore's own design system, documented at pds.protocore.io.

/// Long~150 words

Protocore is a software company: we design, build and operate software for payment companies, public institutions and product teams. The work runs across four services — software engineering, payments, digital public services, and hardware & IoT. On the payments side, everything runs on one core — a double-entry ledger, accounts with IBANs, and card issuing — and each capability ships as its own product with a production demo behind it: six in total, licensed as software to banks, e-money and payment institutions, and merchants, who run the service under their own brand and licences. The flagship is Protocore Pay, a whitelabel banking app platform whose app layer takes any design language and any feature mix. Alongside it sit an operations console, hosted checkout, in-person payments, virtual IBANs, and card programs. Underneath everything is PDS, the design system every product — and this site — is built with, documented at pds.protocore.io. Protocore works from Bucharest and remotely across the EU, and publishes in English and Romanian. Press contact: contact@protocore.io.

/// The mark

One mark, three variants.

The faceted core mark is the only logo — there is no drawn wordmark; lockups set the name next to the mark in Roboto Medium. Each tile below links its files.

Black on paper

For light backgrounds.

White on ink

For dark backgrounds.

Accent on ink

For dark surfaces only — the green does not sit on white.

/// Do
  • [ 01 ]Keep clear space equal to the mark's width on all sides.
  • [ 02 ]Use the black variant on light backgrounds and the white variant on dark ones.
  • [ 03 ]Reserve the accent variant for ink (#0a0a0a) surfaces.
  • [ 04 ]Scale from the SVG files — the mark stays sharp at any size.
/// Don't
  • [ 01 ]Don't recolor the mark beyond the three provided variants.
  • [ 02 ]Don't rotate, outline, or add shadows or other effects.
  • [ 03 ]Don't redraw the mark or change its proportions.
  • [ 04 ]Don't set the Protocore name in another typeface — lockups use Roboto Medium.
/// Color & type

Near-monochrome, one green.

The palette is ink, paper, and a single reserved accent. Type is Roboto for text and Roboto Mono for labels — uppercase, prefixed ///.
