You don't have to pay to use it commercially, but you might want to pay to use it commercial because we provide additional features of use to people in bigger companies.

This means it is "libre" (the source is available). Also, it is "gratis" (it is free from cost to use, although it is permissible to charge a one-time "distribution" fee - such as might be done if you want someone to mail you a DVD with the source on it.) [quote] 2.11 Can I use R for commercial purposes? R is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL), version 2 <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html>. If you have any questions regarding the legality of using R in any particular situation you should bring it up with your legal counsel. We are in no position to offer legal advice. It is the opinion of the R Core Team that one can use R for commercial purposes (e.g., in business or in consulting). The GPL, like all Open Source licenses, permits all and any use of the package. It only restricts distribution of R or of other programs containing code from R. This is made clear in clause 6 (“No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor”) of the Open Source Definition <https://opensource.org/docs/definition.html>: The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research. It is also explicitly stated in clause 0 of the GPL, which says in part Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program. Most add-on packages, including all recommended ones, also explicitly allow commercial use in this way. A few packages are restricted to “non-commercial use”; you should contact the author to clarify whether these may be used or seek the advice of your legal counsel. None of the discussion in this section constitutes legal advice. The R Core Team does not provide legal advice under any circumstances. [quote/] -- Heisenberg may have been here.
