Does AGPL 3 requeired to give free services
<p>I found the following lines about AGPL3 and I am not sure about the correct way to interpret it.</p>
<p>Does AGPL3 oblige me to give my cloud services that connected to the app for free or is it only the source code of it.</p>
<p>They write the word <code>source</code> all the time and it sounds to me like it does not have to be the word <code>source code</code> and could be the actual service.</p>
<p>Source one <a href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.en.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">gnu</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>access to copy the Corresponding Source from a network server at no
charge.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding Source
of the work are being offered to the general public at no charge under
subsection 6d.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>by providing access to the Corresponding Source from a network server
at no charge,</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p>[I]f you modify the Program, your modified version must prominently
offer all users interacting with it remotely through a computer
network…an opportunity to receive the Corresponding Source of your
version by providing access to the Corresponding Source from a network
server at no charge, through some standard or customary means of
facilitating copying of software.</p>

<p>Example:</p>
<p>I use app on the mobile with AGPL3.</p>
<p>This app is using google Firebase cloud that cost me money each month to use.</p>
<p>Do I need to provide this service for free, or am I allowed take money on it every month to for maintenance of the application.</p>
<p>Share the code that I put to the cloud I understand that I need, but can am I allowed to charge the users for the service of using the cloud.</p>

<p>Yes, commercial use is allowed for the AGPLv3 license. You can charge for your use of the software so long as you provide a way for the public to download the source code in its entirety.</p>
