Violating this policy can result in a number of consequences, including having your account suspended or banned. So if you’re using Fiverr for anything other than personal use, be sure to read the site’s Terms of Service carefully and make sure you are in compliance.
As a freelancer, you likely know that there are many different platforms out there where you can offer your services. Fiverr is one of the most popular, and it’s a great place to find work if you’re just starting out. But what does commercial use mean on Fiverr?
In short, commercial use means that the buyer is purchasing the right to use your work in a way that will make them money. This could be for their own business, or for a client they are working with. Basically, if they are going to be using your work to generate income, it’s considered commercial use.
There are a few things to keep in mind if you’re planning on offering commercial use rights on Fiverr. First, make sure that you have the necessary rights to sell commercial use rights for your work. If you created the work yourself, then you likely have no problem selling commercial use rights.
However, if you’re using someone else’s work (e.g., an image from a stock photo site), then you’ll need to make sure that you have the appropriate license to sell those rights.
Second, be clear about what exactly the buyer is purchasing. When you list your gig, make sure to include all of the details about what they will be receiving. For example, will they be getting a high-resolution version of your work? Will they be able to use it an unlimited number of times? Be sure to spell all of this out so there are no surprises later on.
Finally, remember that you can always negotiate with buyers on Fiverr. If someone contacts you about a gig but they’re not willing to pay your asking price, see if there’s something else you can offer them instead (e., a lower resolution version of your work). Commercial use gigs can be a great way to earn some extra money on Fiverr, but only if you play by the rules and are clear about what the buyer is purchasing.
