Licenses & Editions

We believe in a "Pay Once, Own It" model. Pragma CMS avoids monthly subscriptions that create friction for freelancers and their clients. We offer three tiers designed to scale with your needs.

1. Community Edition (Free)

• Target: Students, hobbyists, and open-source enthusiasts.
• Price: €0.
• Terms: Includes the full core system. No official support. A "Powered by Pragma CMS" badge is mandatory and cannot be removed from the footer.
• Goal: To learn modern PHP and build personal projects without overhead.

2. Pro License (Single Site)

• Target: Freelancers and SMEs building professional sites for a specific client.
• Price: €99 (One-time payment).
• Benefits:
  • 1 year of core updates included.
  • Access to "Pro" extensions (Advanced Forms, SEO Pro, etc.).
  • Removal of the Pragma CMS branding.
  • Renewal: After the first year, update access can be renewed for €49/year. If you choose not to renew, your site never stops working—you simply stay on the last version you downloaded.

3. Agency License (Unlimited per Server)

• Target: Web agencies managing 10 to 100+ clients on a single infrastructure.
• Pricing Options:
  • Annual Plan: €399 / year (Includes 1 year of core updates).
  • Lifetime Plan: €999 (One-time payment, Updates for life).
• The Problem it Solves: Purchasing and tracking 50 individual licenses is an administrative nightmare. We simplify this by linking the license directly to your VPS IP address.
• Benefits:
  • Create unlimited client sites on your server.
  • As you grow, your cost per site drops significantly (e.g., with 20 sites, the cost is only €20/site).
  • Manage updates for your entire fleet from the Global Platform Dashboard.
• Renewal (Annual Plan only): €199/year to maintain core update access for the entire server if you chose the yearly option.
