Chapter 34: Icons Finance
1. What is the “Icons Finance” Page?
This page lists only the icons that represent finance, money management, banking, investments, taxes, charts, coins, credit cards, wallets, balance sheets, and financial concepts.
These icons are extremely useful for:
- Personal finance / budgeting apps
- Banking / fintech websites & dashboards
- Investment / stock market trackers
- Invoice / billing / payment pages
- “Pricing Plans” or “Subscription” sections (overlap with Currency)
- Accounting / tax software interfaces
- Crypto wallet or exchange UIs
- E-commerce checkout / payment method selectors
- “Financial Report” or “Balance Sheet” sections
In Font Awesome 5 free, the Finance category is medium-sized and highly practical (around 20–30 icons, mostly solid fas style, some regular far). It overlaps a bit with Currency (dollar-sign, money-bill) but focuses more on banking tools, credit cards, charts, wallets, and financial operations. Newer versions (FA6/7) added many more (wallet, credit-card-front, chart-pie-simple, piggy-bank, sack-dollar), but FA5 free already has the most widely used finance icons that power almost every fintech or money-management site even in 2026.

4. Teacher Tips for Finance Icons
- Colors — Green (#28a745 / #4caf50) for profit/savings/success, red/orange (#f44336 / #ff9800) for expenses/debt, blue (#2196f3) for credit/banking, purple (#673ab7) for invoices/contracts, gold (#f7931a) for crypto/bitcoin.
- Size — Big sizes (fa-5x, fa-6x) look professional on dashboards/pricing; smaller (fa-2x) inside buttons/lists.
- Combine categories — Pair with Currency (rupee-sign, dollar-sign), Files (file-invoice), or Chart (chart-line, chart-pie) for full finance feel.
- Accessibility — Add aria-label=”Profit: +₹45,280″ or text; never rely on color alone for positive/negative values.
- Upgrade note — In Font Awesome 6/7, Finance has many more free icons (wallet, credit-card-front, sack-dollar, chart-simple, piggy-bank variants) — upgrade for modern fintech/budgeting apps.
