The Flaticon alternative with free SVG
Flaticon has a far bigger library (18M+ icons and stickers), but its free plan gives you PNG with required attribution; SVG is Premium, from $12.99 a month. BlendIcons gives you SVG for free, in 8 matching styles, and credit is optional.

Why it matters
Why people look for a Flaticon alternative
The differences that show up in real projects, and what they cost you.
- 1
SVG sits behind Premium
Flaticon lists SVG, EPS and PSD as Premium formats; the free plan is PNG. A PNG blurs when you scale it and cannot be recoloured with CSS. An SVG stays sharp at any size, takes a colour change in one line of code and is usually smaller.

Free icons need a credit line
On the free plan you must link to Flaticon and credit the author. In an app or a client site, that means a credits page you have to keep accurate. Our licence does not require credit, though we appreciate it.
- 3
Icons from many authors rarely match
A big marketplace mixes stroke widths, corner radii and perspective from thousands of designers. BlendIcons draws each design in matching styles, so a full UI set stays consistent and you can switch from Light to Bold later without hunting for replacements.
Honest fit
Which one is right for you?
Flaticon is a good product. Here is when each one makes more sense.
Choose BlendIcons if
- You want SVG files for free, with no Premium plan.
- You would rather not maintain a credits page.
- You want consistent icons across a whole UI in matching styles.
Stay with Flaticon if
- You need niche icons or stickers that only a library of millions has.
- PNG with a credit line is fine for your project.
Switching
Switch in three steps
No migration project. Most people replace a set in one sitting.

Pick one style

Download or paste
Get SVG or PNG, or copy the icon into your design, code or slides. In Figma, use the free plugin.
Icons you already downloaded from Flaticon keep the licence you got them under. You can use both side by side and replace them over time.
