Use Our Visualizations


We dream of a world where powerful visuals are used to explain anything and everything.

For this reason, we allow much of our original visual content to be used by others — and in many use cases, this can be done for free.

How to Use Our Work

If you’re looking to use our content, see which category you fall into below:


You can use our original content for free, as long as you follow these guidelines:

– Please link back to the original source

– Please provide attribution to “Visual Capitalist”

– Please don’t edit or change the content, size, or formatting of the graphic

You are welcome to use our original content in any way as long as you abide by the above considerations. However, if you are looking to make edits to the content (resize, translations, remove branding, etc.) you are required to license it for professional use.

Our visual content gets leveraged by a wide range of media, organizations, and experts. You can get access to our full library of original content by going to our licensing site.

1. Use an Infographic (Free)

You want to use, share, or re-publish an existing infographic, without making changes to it.

That's fine by us.

You can use our original content for free, but please link back to the source and don't make unauthorized changes to the images. Thanks!

2. Paid Licensing

You want to use an infographic - but you need to make changes to it first (i.e. edits, layout changes, translation, remove branding)

That's great.
