All described below relates to 3DCoat 2021, 3DCoatTextura 2021 and later versions (3DCoat 2022 , 3DCoatTextura 2022, ...).
Depending on your license type, we provide multiple options for upgrading your license. Please, visit the Store and check Upgrades banners for different products in our Store to check the options available for you. In most cases, your serial key will be required to upgrade. If you forget your license key, please go to your Account on our website. Choose Licenses and check the Product/License you want to upgrade. Then click the Upgrade button to see the Upgrade options available. If you own a 3DCoat V4 (or V2, V3) Serial Key, please click Add my V4 key button. Once your V4 (or V2, V3) license key is displayed in your account, you will see the Upgrade button there.
When you purchase a permanent license of 3DCoat 2021 or 3DCoatTextura 2021 (starting from version 2021 and higher), you get 12 months of free program updates (the first year) starting from the date of your purchase. Within those 12 months of free updates any new version of the program that comes out will be free to download, and all those new updates will be accessible from your account. For instance, you bought a version of 3DCoat 2021 or 3DCoatTextura 2021 on 25.04.2021, say it was 3DCoat 2021.3. Then you will be able to download for free all released versions of the program up to 25.04.2022 (even if it will be the next year's version, say 3DCoat 2022.1). However, the subsequent version 3DCoat 2022.2 released after 25.04.2022 will not be accessible to you free of charge.
Once that 12-month period of free updates (the first year) is over, you will have an option to purchase any future release of the appropriate program within the next 12 months (the second year) at the discounted rate of 45 Euros (in case of 3DCoat) or 40 Euros (in case of 3DCoatTextura) yet with another 12 months of free program updates starting from the date of the upgrade. That means that you will be able to buy any version released from 26.04.2022 to 25.04.2023 at the very discounted rate with another 12 months of free program updates starting from the date of such upgrade.
But if you do not buy any upgrade version during the second year after the initial purchase, you will be able to buy any future release version at the discounted price of 90 Euros (in case of 3DCoat) or 80 Euros (in case of 3DCoatTextura) at any time with another 12 months of free program updates starting from the date of the upgrade. That means that if you did not buy any upgrade for 45 (or 40) Euros until 25.04.2023 you will be able to buy the upgrade for 90 (or 80) Euros any time starting from 26.04.2023. And when you buy it you will receive another 12 months of free program updates starting from the date of the upgrade. And the same upgrade logic as described above repeats and applies.
Therefore, starting from the 3rd year following your initial purchase date and at any time later, you will be able to purchase the latest version with a new 12-month free updates package at 90 Euros (in case of 3DCoat) or 80 Euros (in case of 3DCoatTextura). Therefore, even if you decide to get your program updated for the first time even 5 years after the initial purchase, you will be able to do so at a fixed discounted price of 90 Euros (in case of 3DCoat) or 80 Euros (in case of 3DCoatTextura). Then the same rule of 12 months of free program updates will apply starting from the date of such purchase.
