You can just buy the Business edition and use the install package you will download to upgrade your HikaShop to the Business edition. You won't loose any data but we still recommend that you do a backup of your website, just in case.

I've tried other shopping carts, and so far, this seems to be the front runner. If I get the results i'm looking for (and the registrations for my software), I'm considering upgrading for the "affiliates" functionality. The price seems a little steep (@ $140.00) for the single bit of added functionality I'm interested in. Any plans on selling individual add-ons on an as-needed basis? i'd be more willing to pay for the features i want, rather than a bundle full of features that i know i'll never use... Just a thought, and again, a thanks for the great component... well done.
