In short, if you are creating a single end product (like a website or web application) that end users can access for free, and the end product’s source files are not being redistributed in any way, the Standard License is sufficient. The full terms of the Standard License are as follows:- The Standard License grants the purchaser a non-exclusive, non-transferrable, and ongoing right to make use of the Theme.
- You are licensed to use the Theme to create a single End Product for personal use, or for a client.
- The End Product is a customized implementation of the Theme requiring the application of skill and effort
- The End Product you create may be accessed by multiple End Users and the End Users must be able to access the End Product for free.
- With the Standard License, you can:
- Use the Theme to create one single End Product for personal use or for a client. You can transfer the single End Product to your client for any fee. This license is then transferred to your client.
- With the Standard License, you cannot:
- Create multiple End Products using the Theme.
- Create an End Product where End Users must pay in order to access.
- Redistribute the Theme “as is” by itself or as part of a bundle of products.

Helpful Examples
For freelancers or agencies creating a website for a single client
If you are a freelancer or agency creating one website for a single client and the website you’re creating can be accessed by the end-user (in this case, visitors to your client’s website) free of charge, then the Standard License is all you need.If users have to pay to access certain features or areas of the website, like a SaaS application, then an Extended License is needed.
Note: a typical e-commerce website requires users to pay for products on the website, but not to use the website – in this case, a Standard License is sufficient.
For companies creating a website for their own business
If you represent a company and are building a website for the business, you must choose the appropriate license. If the website you are building is informational, like a landing page or marketing website, where users can access the website for free, then the Single License is all you need.If your company is creating a website that requires users to pay to access certain areas of the website, then you must purchase an Extended License.
For creating multiple end products using the same theme
If you are creating more than one end product, but want to use the the same theme, then you will need to buy multiple licenses of the same theme – Standard Licenses if the end product is accessed for free, Extended Licenses if the end product requires paid access.Multi-channel redistribution, and advanced development
