Commercial use: selling what you make

If you sell on Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT), this page answers the big question: can you sell the resources you make with these tools? Short version: yes, as long as you have the right license.

Can I sell what I make?

Bearwood Labs tools are made for TPT sellers, so selling the worksheets, puzzles, and printables you create is the whole point.

A paid license is what unlocks that. Once you own the license for a tool, the resources you generate with it are yours to sell in your own products.

If you’re on a free tier or demo, you can usually build and preview. Selling the output is what the paid license is for.

Crossword Creator: free vs commercial

Crossword Creator has a free tier that’s fine for classroom use, with some feature limits.

Selling the crosswords you generate is a step up: that needs a commercial license.

Get the Crossword Creator commercial licenseUnlock commercial use so you can sell the crosswords you generate.

There’s more about the tool itself on the Crossword Creator page.

What about bundles?

Some bundles include commercial-use terms that cover every product in the bundle. So if you bought a bundle, the commercial rights may already be sorted for all the tools inside it.

The wording inside an app can be confusing here, so if you’re not certain what your bundle covers, check your bundle’s product page or receipt rather than guessing.

Flat Pack protects the resources you sell

Flat Pack exists to protect the resources you sell. Flattening turns your slides into images, which stops buyers from pulling out or editing your clipart and fonts.

That protection is one-way on purpose: a flattened file can never be converted back to the editable original. That’s what keeps your source artwork safe once a resource is out in the world.

More about the tool is on the Flat Pack page.
