Dear MakerWorld community!
We’re thrilled to announce a major update to our Commercial License Membership today! This change is designed to help you save more on high-quality commercial models and simplify your physical prints selling business by giving you more flexibility and allowing you to focus on the talented creators you love.
In addition, this update lets our creators offer you a wider range of subscription choices, including Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly plans.
Whether you’re a seasoned Commercial License user or just learning what it is, this post has something for you!
Updated! Commercial License Membership Plans: Save More on Commercial Models – How It Works
We are excited to introduce new billing options designed to maximize value for our members and provide more flexibility for our creators.
What the Membership Plan Offers
For Members (Customers): The primary benefit is a lower daily cost and greater savings. For customers seeking a long-term subscription, the Quarterly and Yearly plans are now available. These longer-term subscriptions significantly lower your daily cost compared to the Monthly plan, helping you save more on access to high-quality commercial models.
For Creators: Creators benefit from Flexible Pricing and Stable Revenue. They can now offer Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly billing options, giving them flexibility in their pricing strategy and promoting more stable, longer-term subscriptions from their members.
How to Set Up (For Creators)
Setting up the new billing flexibility is fast and simple for our creators: When editing your License Level Price, you will now see three distinct billing options: Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly. You must fill in the desired price for at least one billing period. After entering the price(s), the system will automatically calculate and display the corresponding Daily Cost for each tier, ensuring transparency for members.

What Is Commercial License Membership? – A Quick Refresh
Commercial License Membership streamlines how creators offer and makers purchase licenses for commercial use. This simplifies the process for those who want to sell physical prints of models downloaded from MakerWorld, while keeping designs freely available for personal use.
