Coupons can't be stacked on So Fontsy at all. This includes, but is not limited to VIP members. However, VIP members always get the best price so if the coupon applied provides the greater value on the product in an order, it will be applied. If the member's VIP discount offers the larger discount that trumps any coupon.
If you join So Fontsy with a free first month and cancel your subscription prior to the end of the first term, all benefits - including any vouchers - will be cancelled effective immediately.
