π Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1οΈβ£ Can I use designs to sell on Print-on-Demand products?
β Yes! The Standard License allows commercial use, so you can sell up to 200 units per design.
β Please note: If you want to sell POD products on Etsy, you must comply with their rules and guidelines, which means you cannot buy a finished design, put it onto a POD product and sell it – Etsy states you have to have some hand in the process – like adding to or changing the design.
2οΈβ£ What if I want to sell more than 200 units?
β You need the Extended License, which removes the sales cap and allows unlimited POD sales.
3οΈβ£ Can I modify the designs?
β Yes! You can modify designs (e.g., add text, combine elements), but you cannot resell them as stand-alone files.
4οΈβ£ Can I resell the digital files?
β No. Designs can only be used for selling physical products. You cannot redistribute, resell, or offer them for free as digital files.
