Graphic Design Prices Lebanon 2026: Full Guide
Furrsati TeamNovember 2, 20257 min read
One of the most common questions in Lebanese freelance and WhatsApp groups is simple: what are graphic design prices in Lebanon 2026? The honest answer is that there is no single number. Prices sit in ranges that shift depending on the job: a simple logo, a full brand identity, or a monthly social media pack are three very different things. In this guide we break the numbers down piece by piece in US dollars, explain why pricing in USD is what protects designers from the chaos of the Lebanese pound, and show you how to package your deliverables so clients understand the value.
Why Price in USD, Not LBP
Before any numbers, one thing has to be clear: pricing your design work in Lebanese pounds is financial self-harm. The exchange rate moves, and the gap between "fresh dollars" and old bank dollars (lollars) means any LBP quote is exposed to loss between the moment you agree and the moment you get paid.
When you price in USD:
- You protect yourself from rate swings between the quote and the delivery date.
- You give the client a clear, stable number with no "tomorrow it's different."
- You can take payment from diaspora and Gulf clients in the same currency without headaches.
The biggest practical challenge is that the local client thinks in pounds even when paying dollars. To handle that gracefully, we have a full guide on charging USD when clients think in LBP that walks you through it step by step.
Logo Design Prices in Lebanon 2026
The standalone logo is the most-requested service, and there's a big difference between "just a logo" and "a full brand identity." Let's be clear about the ranges:
Simple Logo (Logo Only)
- Roughly $50 – $150 for a single logo with two or three revisions and ready-to-use files (PNG, JPG).
- This range suits small projects: a small shop, an Instagram page, online sellers.
- The warning: if you price below this, you'll find yourself working for an hourly rate lower than a delivery driver.
Professional Logo With Options
- Roughly $150 – $400 including 2-3 concepts, more revisions, black-and-white versions, and vector files (AI or SVG) that print at any size.
- This is the package the restaurant, the café, or the emerging brand actually wants.
Practical Tip
Always explain the difference between the cheap $20 logo from a foreign template site and a logo designed for the client's story and market. The value isn't in the file; it's in the thinking behind it.
Full Brand Identity Prices
This is a step up in both work and price. A full identity is not just a logo; it's a complete visual system.
Brand Identity Package
- Roughly $400 – $1,200 depending on the size of the brand and the number of deliverables.
- Usually includes: the logo and its variations, a color palette, typography, a business card, a letterhead, and short brand guidelines.
Full Brand Guidelines
- Roughly $800 – $2,500+ for brands that need a detailed guidelines booklet: logo usage rules, spacing, right-and-wrong examples, visual tone of voice, and applications across different materials.
- This level suits larger companies, chains, or brands preparing to expand into the Gulf.
The difference between "logo only" and "full guidelines" must be clear in the proposal, because most misunderstandings happen when a client pays a logo price and expects a full identity. To present your services in an organized way, build out your graphic design services page and a hire a graphic designer in Beirut listing.
Social Media Pack Prices
This is where steady income lives for a designer. Social media posts aren't a one-off project; they're a recurring monthly relationship.
Per-Post Pricing
- Roughly $8 – $25 per post (post or story design) depending on complexity and motion.
- Per-post pricing makes sense for clients who want occasional designs, but it's tiring because every task needs a fresh negotiation.
The Monthly Bundle (Smarter)
- Roughly $150 – $500 per month for a bundle that includes a set number of posts (say, 12-20 designs), a defined number of revisions, and a clear delivery schedule.
- The monthly bundle gives you predictable income, gives the client a better per-unit price, and reduces constant negotiation.
Tip: tie the bundle to a fixed revision count (two revisions per design, for example) to protect your time. To go deeper, read our guide on retainer and package pricing for freelancers in Lebanon. And if you pair design with marketing, see our digital marketing pricing in Lebanon 2026 breakdown.
Print Collateral Prices
Despite everything going digital, print is still in strong demand: restaurants, cafés, clinics, and companies.
- Restaurant menu: roughly $80 – $300 depending on page count and photography.
- Brochure or flyer: roughly $40 – $150 for the design.
- Business card: roughly $30 – $80 for the design (excluding the print shop cost).
- Roll-up / banner: roughly $50 – $150.
Important note: the price you give is for design only. Printing costs are on the client or agreed separately. Never blend the two in your proposal.
How to Package Your Services for the Lebanese Client
The local client — especially a café or small shop — works with a tight budget. So what do you do?
- Offer three tiers (basic / recommended / complete). Most people pick the middle.
- Define deliverables clearly: how many designs, how many revisions, how many file formats.
- Ask for a deposit before starting (40-50%), especially with a new client.
- Get paid safely through a platform with escrow protection like Furrsati, where the amount is held in escrow and released on delivery, and you can receive funds via OMT, Whish, bank transfer, or USDT.
Electricity and the Reality of Working in Lebanon
We can't talk about pricing without remembering the cost of operating. Power cuts mean a generator subscription, a UPS or inverter to protect your machine and your work, and sometimes Starlink or mobile data as a backup when the internet drops. That cost is real and must be built into your prices, not paid out of your own pocket. When you price in USD, you can cover those expenses without watching the exchange rate eat them.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a logo cost in Lebanon in 2026?
A simple logo is roughly $50 – $150, and a professional logo with multiple concepts and vector files is roughly $150 – $400. A full brand identity starts around $400 and can exceed $1,200.
Why should I price in USD instead of LBP?
Because the Lebanese pound's exchange rate is volatile, and the gap between fresh dollars and lollars exposes any LBP quote to loss between agreement and payment. Pricing in USD gives you a stable number and protects you.
How much is a monthly social media pack?
A monthly bundle is usually roughly $150 – $500 depending on the number of posts and revisions, or roughly $8 – $25 per post if you price per piece.
How do I get paid safely as a designer in Lebanon?
Use a platform with an escrow system like Furrsati, where the amount is held and released on delivery. You receive funds via OMT, Whish, bank transfer, or USDT in dollars.
What's the difference between a logo price and a full identity price?
A logo is a single element (the mark and its files). A full identity is a complete visual system: logo, colors, typography, cards, and a usage guide. That's why a full identity costs significantly more.
