The currency displayed on the site will default to that of the users IP location. Where the currency is not supported by our payment portal like in this instance with BRL the site will default to USD. We do not have any additional discounts available for V2 beyond the 40% off launch offer, sorry.

I cannot see any emails in our queue sent from the email address you used to create a forum account. When you sent the email you should have received an email letting you know there are delays, but also with a ticket number for you query. Could you please let me know the ticket number so that I can see what has happened to the email you sent two weeks ago?

Hi @Fatima1, welcome to the Affinity forum. I have removed your email addresses from the above posts so they are not picked up and used to spam you. I have also updated the email address on the account to the email address that you asked us to.

Hi @bees17, welcome to the Affinity forum. This would not cause any issues. When you download the app in the App Store they will show in the "My Apps" area on your Apple ID. When you run the apps you will be asked to activate the licence and at that point you would sign in with your Affinity ID to pick up the licence ownership from our own database.

I've no doubt that if people reach out to affinity@serif.com we'll be able to help each person.

We do not have any plans for a Universal Licence that covers a single app (or all three apps on a single OS).

Please ensure that your web browser and anti-virus software is up to date, also check that there aren't any browser plugins that may be preventing the security window appearing (The Honey extension especially has been known to cause issues) or try a different browser entirely. Finally check that your firewall is not blocking any part of the payment process. Payment portals estimate <10% of order attempts to fail for one reason or another, we experience about 5% of people encountering issues, which is lower than expected, and in almost all cases they are resolved with the suggestions above.

Hi @Emilio CM, welcome to the Affinity forum. Our payment systems had a lot of traffic when you reached out but this should now have subsided. Unfortunately the payment set aside for us by your bank was declined our payment gateway. Please see the link below for more details. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/153756-payment-failed-to-process-and-its-taken-my-money-what-can-i-do/

Hi @Ayman, welcome to the Affinity forum. Unfortunately there is currently no way to gift our apps, sorry

Hi @Alexis Medina, welcome to the Affinity forum. My sincere apologies for not getting back to you here sooner. I can see that Andy replied to your email on 20 Nov 2022 and if you have any further queries, please do respond to Andy and he will be happy to help.

Hi Roto, welcome to the Affinity forum. As many of our apps are bought through third party App Stores we do not have a mechanism to offer upgrade pricing to all of our users. This was why we decided to offer such a large launch discount—to give all users, new and existing, and irrespective of how they bought our V1 apps an opportunity to get V2 at an incredible price. V1 owners who do purchase during the launch period will receive bonus content at a later date. Upgrading is completely optional and, if you wish, you can continue to use the V1 apps for as long as you like. We will be updating V1 to fix any critical problems caused by operating system updates in the future. So if the next version of macOS breaks V1 we will endeavour to fix it. There will be a point in time when continuing to maintain V1 in this way will not be tenable, but certainly for the foreseeable future we will continue to patch. In fact, we have an update to V1 queued up for release very shortly with some fixes for Ventura and issues caused by a recent Windows security / quality update.

Hi @Ruanaich, it seems from your account that you have been able to resolve the issue, but if you have not please contact affinity@serif.com and then let me know here you ticket number and I will be happy to take a closer look at this for you. Hi @Mark.Sanchez, we certainly are listening, we have been extremely busy since the V2 launch and we are extremely grateful for those you have remained patient whilst we've been getting back to everyone who has reached out for help. Looking at your account it does not seem you have been able to resolve this issue so if you too could send an email affinity@serif.com and then let me know your ticket number, we'll get you up and running. Unless of course you have already requested a refund as @SteveIOW has, in which case I apologise to both of you that we were unable to assist you in our usual timely manner and I hope that given the chance, we do better next time.

To activate the apps you would need to enter your Affinity ID and your Affinity ID password. I am unsure what the Licence reference is that you mentioned. If you have not yet resolved this issue, please contact affinity@serif.com and then let me know your ticket number and I'll locate the ticket and we'll troubleshoot this for you via email. Could you also please contact affinity@serif.com and then let me know the ticket number here (if you still require help) and we'll hopefully be able get you up and running.

@Claudio60 no worries We match the prices on our own site to those on the App Store. Microsoft individually set the price for each currency, as such there may be some slight differences between currencies across the three stores.

Hi @Claudio60, Are you seeing the same prices for the other apps too?

Sorry for the delays folks 😩 Our payment systems had a lot of traffic when you each reached out but this should now have subsided. The usual cause is that the payments set aside for us by banks are declined our payment gateway. Please see the link below for more details. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/153756-payment-failed-to-process-and-its-taken-my-money-what-can-i-do/ If you've had the money back and want to try again, the quickest solution would be to try using PayPal as the payment option rather than credit/debit card but should wish to try a few things to get the payment through with your card, here's some advice that may help. Please ensure that your web browser and anti-virus software is up to date, also check that there aren't any browser plugins that may be preventing the security window appearing (The Honey extension especially has been known to cause issues) or try a different browser entirely. Finally check that your firewall is not blocking any part of the payment process.

Hi @towser42, please contact affinity@serif.com and we can take a look at this for you. Generally as a rule of thumb 90 days from the V2 launch is the window for additional refunds.

HI @AdamKrawacki, we are sorry to hear this, hopefully if you try with Apple again you may get another person who will be able to assist you.

We offer a 14 day refund window, please contact affinityreturns@serif.com to request a refund.

That is correct, however the US price does not include any sales tax, whereas the Euro price includes VAT which makes up the difference that you are seeing.

Hi Timo, Please see our FAQ for help activating your purchase; https://affinity.serif.com/learn/in-app-licence-activation/
