Some clarifications.
R's license (GPL v2) is not about money,

If you want to hide the fact that you are using R -- especially if
you charge people for your software that uses R clandestinely -- that's
a violation of the license (GPL). I doubt if anyone associated with R

You can set up a web site and have them use that. Then they
just need a browser.
See www.rpad.org for one way or develop an internal or external site

A short answer to your question is 'yes and no': R is an
interpreted language. There may have been attempts to create a
"compiler" for R, but I don't know if any have actually succeeded very
