Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Ultimate Cursor licensing and billing
What is the difference between a yearly and a lifetime license?
A yearly license includes 12 months of updates and support and renews each year unless you cancel. A lifetime license is a single payment that includes updates and support for the life of the product.
How many websites can I use a license on?
It depends on the plan: 1 site, 5 sites or 50 sites. Every plan includes the same Pro features — only the number of websites changes, and the 50-site Agency plan adds white-label rights.
What payment methods do you accept?
Checkout is handled securely by Freemius, which accepts major credit and debit cards and PayPal.
Can I upgrade my license later?
Yes. You can move to a plan with more sites at any time and pay only the difference.
What happens when a yearly license ends?
Updates and priority support stop until you renew. Renewals are charged automatically unless you cancel before the renewal date.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes. Pro purchases are covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Renewal payments are not refundable, so cancel before your renewal date if you don't want to continue.
