Checkout.com commissioned a semi-mono Apercu and runs it at 80px/700 in white on black for full-bleed statements — PERFORMANCE as a marquee, not a metric. Inter handles the 16px substance, white 24px-radius pills punch through the dark, and 3D payment ribbons orbit the type; enterprise payments styled like a motorsport livery.

Checkout.com commissioned a semi-mono Apercu and runs it at 80px/700 in white on black for full-bleed statements — PERFORMANCE as a marquee, not a metric. Inter handles the 16px substance, white 24px-radius pills punch through the dark, and 3D payment ribbons orbit the type; enterprise payments styled like a motorsport livery.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#000000` |
| surface | `#0E0E0E` |
| border | `#232323` |
| text | `#ECECEE` |
| text_muted | `#929293` |
| primary | `#186AFF` |
| accent | `#186AFF` |
| link | `#BBFF00` |
| secondary | `#0C1142` |
| button_bg | `#186AFF` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#186AFF` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `accent`, `button_bg` are all `#186AFF` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#186AFF` — THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed.
- **link** `#BBFF00` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **secondary** `#0C1142` — optional secondary accent — LOW decode confidence; use rarely (a status color or a single decorative moment) or omit it entirely. Prefer one accent unless the reference clearly shows two.
