The Bad
- Ready-Made Products and Templates Only
- License Limitations
Ready-Made Products and Templates Only
Creative Market’s ready-made, instant download ability is second to none in convenience. However, if you want a design tweaked, even slightly, you’ll have to do it yourself using inDesign or another design program since Creative Market doesn’t facilitate custom orders.
License Limitations
In the event that your native app, web app, game download, or other physical or digital end product is sold more than 250,000 times, you are no longer covered under Creative Market’s extended business license.
The Bottom Line
For a small business or for personal use, Creative Market is an amazing option. Its inventory of social media templates, fonts, and web themes are especially impressive. But scalability is a concern if you plan to sell more than 250,000 digital or physical products that incorporate a branding element from Creative Market.
