# Do I have to pay for using Greenshot?

Greenshot is free in terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). Basically, that means that end users may use this program free of charge for private as well as commercial purposes. This is probably the case for the large majority of use cases.

I can't thin of a case where you would pay for Greenshot except for on a Mac where you are really paying a minimal fee for the Apple store they charge. Greenshot is free on the PC otherise.
