Do I Own My Wix Logo?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 11:43 pm

As the proud owner of a Wix website, you may be wondering if you own the logo that appears on your site. The answer is: it depends.

If you created the logo yourself or commissioned someone to create it for you, then you own the logo. However, if you used a Wix Logo Maker to create your logo, Wix owns the copyright to that logo.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

So what does that mean for you? If you ever want to sell your Wix website, or use your logo in any offline marketing materials, you’ll need to purchase a commercial license from Wix.

This license will allow you to use your logo in any way you wish, without restriction from Wix.

PRO TIP: If you create a logo using the Wix Logo Maker, you grant Wix a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sub-licensable license to use your logo. This means that you still own your logo, but Wix has the right to use it for its own purposes.

If you’re not planning on selling your website or using your logo for anything other than on your Wix site, then you don’t need to worry about purchasing a commercial license. Your logo is safe and sound and firmly under Wix’s copyright.

Do I Own My Wix Logo?

It depends on how the logo was created. If you made it yourself or had someone make it for you, then you own it. If you used Wix’s Logo Maker, then Wix owns the copyright to that logo.
