Perpetual License Vs Subscription in Wondershare

Perpetual License Vs Subscription in Wondershare

Unlike other software company, Wondershare still provide perpetual license (One Time Payment or Lifetime License) for its wide range of software portfolios.

If you choose perpetual license option, you will purchase the particular version of software (i.e. Filmora 12 or PDFelement 9).
You will have lifetime access to this particular version of software including the bug fixes and patch updates released after your purchase (i.e. Filmora 12.1, 12.2,12.3,12.4,12.5 & etc). 

But, you are not entitled to access the future version of software published after your purchase.
In another words, if you purchased perpetual license for Filmora 12, we will have lifetime access to Filmora 12 (install and uninstall on your device as you like) but you won't be able to access Filmora 13 or any newer version published after your purchase. 

If you choose the subscription option, you are entitled to the latest software version published as long as the validity of your subscription is still valid.


You may prompt or remind to Upgrade or update to the Latest Version when you open the software, please do not update your software if you are in Perpetual License. You will lose the access if you update your software.


You can always upgrade your Perpetual License in older version to any of the newer version. We provide Upgrade Discount under these circumstances. Please contact us for more details.

###Filmora 13 and PDFelement had been scheduled to be launched in Q4 2023.
