The software in ports does not originate with OpenBSD. It will be up to you to examine the terms of each software package and determine if you can include it. Typically, software under BSD, ISC, and MIT licenses can be used within commercial products without special arrangement or payment. Other licenses vary. After determining the licenses of desired software you should consult legal counsel.
