Yes. Bluu Next is under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 , which allows commercial use at any scale, logos, websites, apps and PDFs included.
How do I download and install Bluu Next?
FontKind doesn’t host Bluu Next’s files: it isn’t on Google Fonts, and comes free from Fontsource , a library of open fonts.

Is Bluu Next in Microsoft Word?
