Create product with 1 year of updates included

[aggrosoft]

Maybe I'm just a little overwhelmed by all the options I can configure for a product - but what is the best way to sell a product for a fixed price (say 99$). The user can then download and use this product including its license as long as he wants to. But if he needs support and updates after that year he has to pay like 49$ to extend for another year. Can this be done?

one option would be to do it the same way that WHMCS used to sell their lifetime licenses... effectively make them two separate products...

so make a one-time product for $99 and a separate "Support & Updates" product for $49 that they can buy at a later time.

 

you could probably even make it into a product bundle, containing both products, perhaps having the "Updates" product recurring annually, but discounted for the first year.

Ok this is a good advise but still not exactly what I'm looking for. What I have found now is that I can have Support/Updates Addon - this works for what I need. I'm setting it up as follows now:

 

Create a product with one-time billing of 99$

Create an addon for that product support with yearly fee of 49,50$

Add it as the Support/Upgrades addon in the software licensing module settings

 

It would be great if the addons had a feature to have a percentage price based on the attached product. So I wouldn't have to create an addon for every product. Does anybody know a module that does this?

oh you're using the Licensing Addon.... you should have said!

with regards to addon percentage price for addons, i'm not aware of such a module - though it's been a requested feature to WHMCS for years.
