The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
Good afternoon!
I teach for an institution (university) already and I use Canvas.
My question is the following: I am starting to give tutorials (extra source of income) and I would like to know if I can create a course in a separate Canvas to give my tutorials in a free account?
I have done other research for other platforms but Canvas is very user friendly and I feel more comfortable using it.
Thank you,
Tania Adame
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @tania_adame Welcome to the Canvas Community!
As far as I know, you can use your FFT account for almost any purpose, even a commercial one. I am going to ping @scottdennis ā, because he recently researched and answered a similar question from another community member.

You are correct, Sir. There is nothing in the end user agreement that would prevent you or anyone from using Canvas Free for Teachers for commercial purposes.

@tania_adame ā, I'm glad to see you got such clear answers. Speaking purely personally, if I were considering this back when I was teaching, I would have been required to get approval from my school before embarking upon a project like this, so I hope you've already cleared it with them.
