JomSocial Renewal Policy. What Happens After 12 Months?
Posted by: azrul on Oct 27, 2009
With every copy of JomSocial sold, we provide access to the download area for another 12 months. This allows you to download any new future updates, major or minor, completely free.
So, what happen after 12 months? With many other Joomla! components that use 'subscription' model, you actually end up paying the same amount yearly. In JomSocial however, you can simply renew your download access to the latest build for a much cheaper fee.
Do you have to pay every year to continue using JomSocial ? No. Your usage license will NEVER expire and you can use your current copy of JomSocial for as long as you like. You only need to pay the renewal fee if you want to gain access to the download area for additional 12 months.
We have decided to make renewal as affordable as possible. Renewing your download access for another 12 months will only be $74.50 and $59.40 for each Professional and Standard Edition, respectively. This basically means that you will enjoy a massive 50% and 40% discounts for renewing your licenses.
If you renew BEFORE your download expires, the download expiry date will be extended for another 12 months from the current expiry date.
If you renew AFTER your download has expired, the next expiry date will be 12 months from the date of payment.
On Monday, November 2nd onwards, you will be able to renew your license in the download area within your download page. All you need to do is to login to your download page and you will see the renewal link next to each purchase. Just click on that link and once the payment is completed, your download access will automatically be renewed.
EARLY BIRD SPECIAL: Within November and December 2009, you can use this discount code 'JSEarlyBird" to enjoy additional $15 off the renewal fee!!.
If you have any questions, feel free to post it at our forum.

No wonder ppl dl nulled JS, if you want to keep your customers then renewal fees must be lower.
For over 6/8 months now i have not requested Support.
So all i would be paying for is maybe 3/4 updates. Which is definately not worth it.
I already have the Base product, That will do for now.
Maybe i will renew in 12 months time.
If I apply the Joomlashack coupon for a new purchase, that total would be...$74.50 USD
The "huge discount" to all existing users seems to be exactly the same as sales going on elsewhere in the Joomlaverse?

I am also issuing partial refund for those who renew but fail to apply the discount code (due to the missing input box ealier), even if you did not ask for it.
My original license would have expired on 19/11/2009 so if I go by what you stated in the Blog post,
If you renew BEFORE your download expires, the download expiry date will be extended for another 12 months from the current expiry date.
but this is not the case, I should have 12 months and 16 days not 12 months available, 16 days mans alot and could mean the difference between a current JS release and a Major release. We are loyal customers and we should not have to email you to request refunds/credits and days to be added to our access periods because of administrative issues, you have all our details, Please rectify, pretty please
I know of at least one other member Ivi that has a similar access period issue.
I just renewed and there was no place to add the discount code.
It is simply unfair to lie your customers that way.
and thanks for the renewal fee that is really appreciatet among those who are paying.
dont listen to christopher, the latest releases are stable and not unstable as he said.
How about, instead, you renew everyone FOR FREE until you can release a single stable version?
