License Upgrades & Prorated Discounts

We understand that your needs may grow over time, and we’ve designed flexible upgrade paths.

Annual Licenses – Prorated Upgrades

If you upgrade during your billing cycle, the unused portion of your current plan is credited toward your new license.

• Example: If you are six months into a yearly plan and upgrade, you’ll only pay for the remaining six months at the higher plan rate.
• This ensures you only pay for what you use, without losing value from your existing license.

Lifetime Licenses – Decay-Based Discounts

By default, our payment partner Freemius applies a strict rule:
https://freemius.com/help/documentation/checkout/proration/#proration-from-a-lifetime-license

• If you upgrade from a lifetime license after the first 30 days, you are charged the full amount of the new license.

We believe this is less flexible, so DearFlip offers an additional decay-based value system:

• Your lifetime purchase amount is treated as having a 3-year value window.
• Only the monetary value decays over time, not your license features.
• After each year, one-third of your purchase value is considered “used.”

Example (Lifetime $149 purchase):

• After 1 year → $100 credit remains (≈ $50 used)
• After 2 years → $50 credit remains (≈ $100 used)
• After 3 years → no credit remains

This ensures fairness to both customers and DearFlip’s ongoing development.

Since decay-based discounts are not supported by Freemius, Please contact us for your respective Discount Coupon.
