Can I Sell Templates From Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 9:35 pm

PRO TIP: If you are thinking about selling templates that you created using Canva, think again! Canva’s terms of use strictly prohibit the sale of any templates, designs, or other content that you create using their platform. If you attempt to sell your Canva creations, you could be subject to legal action from Canva. So, whatever you do, don’t try to sell those templates!

As an artist, it’s important to be able to sell your work in a variety of ways. One popular way to do this is through online template sites like Canva. But can you really make money by selling templates on Canva?

The answer is yes and no. Yes, you can sell your templates on Canva, but there are some limitations.

For example, you can only sell templates that you create yourself. You cannot sell someone else’s template or a template that you have purchased. Additionally, all templates must be in Canva’s proprietary format (.cdr).

Furthermore, while you can sell your templates on Canva, you will not be able to make a lot of money doing so. The reason for this is that Canva takes a 20% commission on all template sales. So, if you sell a template for $10, you will only receive $8.

While you can technically make money selling templates on Canva, it’s not a great way to earn a living. There are other platforms out there that allow you to sell your templates with less restrictions and higher commissions. If you’re serious about making money from your template designs, we recommend looking into other options.
