2. Subscription Plans & Domain/Subdomain Quotas
CertifyPress Pro is offered under three flexible, duration-based subscription tiers. All plans share the same generous domain quota: each license key can be activated on 1 Primary Domain (the initial domain registered) plus up to 2 Subdomains belonging to that same primary domain (total 3 hostnames under one base domain):

localhost, 127.0.0.1, *.test, *.local) are free and do not consume your quota.
3. Free Licenses for Non-Profit Organizations (NGOs) & Logo Usage
We are proud supporters of community empowerment and education. We provide free CertifyPress Pro licenses to eligible non-profit organizations, charities, public schools, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) upon application and verification.
4. Subscription Billing & Dynamic Renewal Pricing
CertifyPress Pro licenses are billed on an annual subscription basis (unless explicitly purchased as a Lifetime license):
- Prevailing Market Price at Renewal: All subscriptions renew at the active plan price published at the time of renewal. For example, if you purchase an initial plan for $39, the renewal price next year will be determined by the then-current active pricing (if prices increase, the renewal will be at the higher rate; if prices decrease, you will benefit from the lower rate). Promotional, coupon, or introductory rates are not permanently locked in for subsequent years.
- Automatic Renewal Management: You maintain full control over your billing and may cancel automatic renewals at any time prior to the renewal date via your customer account or by contacting support.
- Post-Expiry Operation: If an annual license is not renewed, your existing installed plugin continues to operate on your site, but automated security updates, new features, template library sync, and technical support will cease.
5. License Verification & Privacy Guarantee
To enforce activation quotas and deliver automated security updates, CertifyPress Pro connects periodically to our remote licensing gateway:
6. Prohibited Uses & Zero-Tolerance Revocation Policy
Customers and users strictly agree NOT to:
- Upload, share, or redistribute license keys or software archives on “GPL clubs”, nulled download platforms, warez forums, Telegram groups, or public Git repositories (e.g. GitHub/GitLab).
- Bypass, alter, or decompile the remote license validation handshake or security routines.
- Use CertifyPress Pro to design, generate, or market fraudulent academic degrees, counterfeit diplomas, or deceptive credentials.
- Remove or alter any author copyright headers or trademark notices from the source code.
7. Technical Support Policy
Technical support is available to all customers with an active, valid license key:
- Operating Hours: Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM UTC.
- Response Time: Tickets are answered within 24 to 48 business hours.
- Included Support: Guidance on plugin setup, fixing verified software bugs, and compatibility patches.
- Excluded Support: Custom code modifications, resolving conflicts with abandoned third-party plugins/themes, and web hosting server management.
8. 14-Day Conditional Refund Policy
All initial purchases of CertifyPress Pro are protected by our 14-Day Conditional Money-Back Guarantee. Because software is non-tangible downloadable digital media, refunds are conditioned on contacting our support team at support@certifypress.com and permitting up to 48 business hours for our engineers to diagnose and resolve any verified bug or incompatibility. Licenses terminated due to illegal activities or scamming are strictly ineligible for refunds.
