Flaticon is an icon and sticker library where the free tier is genuinely usable and the paid one removes the credit line. Free downloads arrive as PNG and require attribution; paying opens SVG, EPS, PSD and base64, which is what matters when an icon has to be recoloured or scaled rather than pasted. An editor in the browser handles the recolouring without a round trip to another application. Collections are capped at three on the free tier, so anybody organising a large set will hit that before they hit a download limit.
Free downloads cover eighteen million icons and stickers as PNG, require attribution, and cap collections at three with fifty icons each. Premium is 8.25 USD a month on the twelve-month plan, billed as 99.00 USD once, or 12.99 USD month to month. Paying opens SVG, EPS, PSD and base64 formats, removes attribution and ads, and lifts collections to unlimited at 256 icons each. VAT and local taxes are stated as extra on both cadences.
Somebody who needs icons often enough that the attribution line has become a nuisance, and who works in a tool that wants vectors rather than flat images. The browser editor suits people without a vector application of their own. Anybody needing a handful of icons once can stay on the free tier indefinitely, as long as they are willing to credit the author each time.
Take the twelve-month plan if you expect to need icons more than four times in a year, because the break-even against the monthly price arrives that quickly. Compare against The Noun Project if the licence matters more than the volume, since that one states its licences never expire and this one is a subscription you keep paying to stay clear of attribution.
