Earn-Per-License Model

Earn-Per-License Model – GearUp Factory Marketplace

Sell one-time or tiered access to your smart contract templates.

The Earn-Per-License model gives template developers on GearUp Factory the ability to monetize their work by offering limited or unlimited access licenses to their templates. This model is best suited for advanced or premium templates where users require flexible, long-term access to reuse the logic multiple times.

💼 What It Means

Under the Earn-Per-License model:

  • Developers set a fixed price to grant access to use their template

  • Buyers purchase a license, which is tied to their wallet

  • Once licensed, users can deploy the template as many times as needed

  • Source code remains locked or partially viewable, based on license type

Licensing is verified on-chain via NFT or token-based access keys.

🔄 Licensing Types

Type
Description
Access

Single Wallet

Only usable by the buyer's connected wallet

Unlimited deploys, 1 wallet

Tiered License

Allows defined features or chain-specific access

Limited chains or functions

Enterprise

Team access with batch deploy or testing sandbox

API + Studio access

💰 Example Flow

  1. You publish a premium contract template (e.g. Multisig DAO + LP Vault)

  2. You set license price at $75 USDC (unlimited deploys)

  3. A user buys the license — NFT is minted to their wallet

  4. They now see the template inside their Studio Library

  5. They deploy it multiple times (no extra charge)

Licenses are non-transferable unless explicitly set as transferable.

🔐 License Rights & Logic

  • Buyers cannot resell your logic (unless resale enabled)

  • Logic is protected and obfuscated unless marked viewable

  • All access is managed via blockchain — GearUp enforces terms

📊 Managing Licensed Templates

Developers can:

  • View sales, license holders, usage volume

  • Enable limited-time discounts

  • Cap license sales (e.g. 250 licenses max)

  • Upgrade license features over time (e.g. add multisig logic to licensed holders only)

✅ When to Use This Model

Ideal For
Reason

Premium DAO or LP Logic

Long-term usability, sensitive features

Project-specific integrations

More complex than simple deploy logic

Teams or Protocol Extensions

Usage across multiple sub-projects or wallets

With the Earn-Per-License model, you gain long-term passive revenue and allow deeper utility access without compromising ownership.
