# Licensing

> The five license types, the buyer acceptance flow, and the certificate.

Every marketplace listing carries a **license** that defines what a buyer may do
with it. As a seller you pick a license type — a standard text loads, which you
can customize. Buyers must accept it before paying.

## The five license types

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Personal Use" icon="user">
    For personal, non-commercial projects only. No resale or redistribution.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Commercial Use" icon="briefcase">
    Use in one commercial product or service. Can't resell the template itself.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Manufacturer License" icon="industry">
    Build and sell hardware based on the design; white-label the dashboard.
    Can't resell the template to other makers.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Reseller License" icon="handshake">
    Resell the complete product (hardware + software) unchanged to end customers.
  </Card>

There's also an **Open** license — free for any use, no agreement required.

## Listing types

A license pairs with a listing type that describes what the buyer receives:

| Listing type               | Buyer gets                                                         |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Software Template          | A digital clone into their account                                 |
| Hardware + Software Bundle | The clone plus physical hardware shipped                           |
| Manufacturer Kit (B2B)     | A design another manufacturer licenses to build their own products |

## Buyer acceptance flow

The acceptance step scales with the stakes:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Personal / Commercial — inline">
    The license text shows inline with a single checkbox. The buy button stays
    disabled until it's checked.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Manufacturer / Reseller — full modal">
    A modal opens with the full agreement. The buyer must scroll to the bottom to
    unlock the accept checkbox, and enter their **company name**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Recorded on the order">
    Acceptance is stored with a timestamp, license type, version, and company
    name — a durable record of the agreement.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## License certificate

After a licensed purchase, the buyer gets a **certificate** showing the licensee,
company, template, order reference, accepted date, and license terms. It's
available:

* On the order success page, right after payment
* Anytime from **My Purchases**
* Linked from the purchase confirmation email

<Note>
  For manufacturer and reseller licenses — which can grant the right to manufacture
  and sell hardware — the certificate is the buyer's record of those rights.
