How to pay for APT

[DougM43]

I have been using APT for a while now and find myself wanting to upgrade to the fully paid up version but as hard as I look I can’t see how to do it, 

I know there must be a way but how?

Doug.

he price is set to be affordable for everyone - 18.70 EUR. For this amount you will get single user license for the full version of APT that can be used on multiple computers, one year support and upgrades. Expired license has to be renewed only if you want access to the latest upgrades and the renewal fee is 6 EUR per year.

It's a great piece of software and great support, worth every penny, 6 euro to upgrade each year, no brainer. Glad you are sorted.
