Hi,

The subscription is for the services (support, updates, cron task, etc).
You do not need to renewal your subscription to continue to use HikaShop.

The renewal is less than the original price. You can see the prices by going in the "My subscription" page.
We propose a "one year" and a "two years" renewals, for the services I mention just above.
For example, the "one year" for HikaShop essential is 20 euros when the "two years" for HikaShop essential is 35 euros.

Kind regards,

On the same subject, I have a customer interested in purchasing Essentials.

What if they decide to upgrade to Business edition half way through the period e.g. 6 months after subscribe abnd pay for one year of Essentials.

Will they be billed for the additional premium (pro rata i.e. extra premium less 50%?

Or will they they have to pay the full premium for Business even though paid full premium for Essentials?

Sorry - could not see an FAQ covering subscription upgrades.

Thanks - Ken ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)")

Hi,

The price for the upgrade is fixed but the subscription deadline will be increased.
