Personal vs Commercial Licenses

Last updated on Apr 14, 2026

If you're wondering "which license do I actually need?", you're not alone. Here's the simple version.

Personal licenses

Best for individual use cases: home projects, students, hobbyists, freelancers buying for themselves, etc.

Commercial licenses

For business / professional use where you need proper compliance (studios, companies, teams, etc.).

Can I use personal for my business?

You might technically buy a personal license as an individual, but if you're using it for business work, you generally want commercial to stay compliant with vendor licensing rules.
