    The free PLE (Personal Learning Edition) license is restricted to be used solely for classroom instruction and personal learning.

    While a license is active, users have access to all new PopcornFX minor and patch version updates.

    Customers will obtain a perpetual license after one year of subscription. After the first year of subscription, if the licensee decides to stop the subscription, he will be able to use his perpetual version (the latest version released at the end of the licensee’s subscription).

    Note that the customer can pay the full year upfront and get access to a perpetual license without any subscription and will access the updates available during the first year.

    Customers can opt also for a Royalty based option based on Gross Revenue regardless of whether a Product is sold to end-users directly or self-published via the Play Store, App Store, or any similar store, or work with a publisher.

    Note this process is manual and needs a specific agreement in order to use an unlocked professional version of the editor without a paid subscription. Please contact us.
