Frequently asked questions

Is this a subscription?
No. It's a one-time payment that lets you use Pro forever.
What do I receive upon purchase?
You'll get a URL to a Python package that you can install with pip in seconds.
Do I have to manage license keys?
No. Just run pip install on your development machine(s) and you are done.
Am I allowed to use Pro for multiple applications?
Yes.
How often can I download Pro?
The Hobbyist edition lets you download Pro once. The Startup edition lets you download it 30 times per month. This way, you don't have to maintain your own copy of Pro. The Enterprise edition can be downloaded 100 times per month. This can be useful in CI environments.
Can I make a backup copy?
Yes. Just don't share it with people outside your organisation.
What does "No GPL restrictions" mean?
When you use fbs, its GPL license normally requires you to also make your own code open source under the GPL. Buying Pro lifts this requirement. This is usually very important for commercial projects.
