Licensing
The Envato Marketplace which exclusively sells the WP Cloud Plugins offers Regular License (terms & conditions) and Extended License (terms & conditions) for the plugin.
Both licenses include:
One-Time Purchase: No recurring fees.
Single Domain Usage: Valid for one project or website.
Unlimited Updates: Enjoy ongoing improvements and new features.
6 Months of Free Support: Get expert help whenever you need it during the support period.
Choosing the Right License
Regular License: Ideal if the plugin is used on publicly accessible, free sections of your site.
Extended License: Required when the plugin is used on parts of your site accessible only to paying users (e.g., via memberships, subscriptions, or product purchases).
The key distinction is that the Extended License serves as a commercial license. If your company generates revenue by offering services that incorporate the WP Cloud Plugin as part of the offering, you’ll need this license. For free services, the Regular License is sufficient.
If it is found that a regular licence is being used on a commercial site where users have to pay to access a site with a WP Cloud plugin module, the licence can be revoked.
Which license for Single site, multiple site, unlimited sites?
The Licenses only covers the usage in one End Product, which means that you will need a separate license for each site when the sites contain a different End Product.
Examples:
When the main site is a global site (.organization.com) for a organization and the subdomains are used by the local departments (newyork.organization.com, london.organization.com) -> Separate licenses
When the subdomain (shop.organization.com) is just part of the website on the main domain (.organization.com). -> A single license
When the plugin is used both on a live site (.organization.com) and its development/staging environment (localhost, dev.organization.com, .organization.com/staging etc) -> A single license
When you want to use the plugin on multiple domains (a-organization.com and b-organization.com). Or when you are using different top-level domains: a-organization.eu and a-organization.com. -> Separate licenses
The plugin is used on a section of your site which is only accessible after paying (memberships, subscriptions, product purchases, etc...). This also applies if your company makes money in other ways. For example, if you offer services that use the WP Cloud Plugin modules as part of the service. -> Extended License
What about development environments?
Localhost, staging and development environments won’t get counted toward the license’s maximum allowed sites if its domain name is clearly a dev or staging site. Here you can find a list of TLDs and subdomains that are considered as dev or staging.
