I use the Kagi Shareware registration service. This means that you can pay Shareware fees with your credit card via email or fax. This also makes it easier for people in other countries, since the currency conversions are handled automatically. If you have any questions about the service, feel free to email me at rwc@kagi.com (please do not send payments to this address — see below).
Pricing
• A Single User License costs $15 per user.
• A Site License costs $300 (equal to 20 users) and covers all locations for your organisation within a 160 km radius of your site (100 miles). One big advantage of a Site License is that you do not need to keep track of how many people at your site are using the software.
• A World-Wide License costs $1200 (equal to 80 users) and covers all locations for your organisation on the planet earth.
