FAQs

Can I use custom font?

We recommend exploring Shopify's Font Picker, which offers hundreds of fully supported font options—perfect for seamless integration with your store.

If you’re experienced with HTML and CSS, or have a developer on hand, you can add custom fonts using Custom CSS. However, please note that custom code and related issues are outside the scope of our support.

Is there any benefit to using system fonts over other fonts?

Yes, system fonts offer a significant advantage in terms of speed—they load faster compared to custom or web-based fonts. Additionally, minimizing the number of fonts used across your store is recommended, as too many fonts can impact page loading times and overall performance.
