Access to Affinity Publisher Beta for those who haven't purchased the software


Recommended Posts

Hello! I understand why betas are only available for those who have purchased the software. However, because of that, I am in a peculiar situation now. I want to try the software, and I still have 5 remaining days of my trial version, but I have got into the well-known bug loop where I cannot  save my file because of an internal error. The beta version 1.10.1, where, apparently,  the bug has been fixed, is only available for existing customers. But I am not one, so I am not eligible to use that version. Now I am just stuck with the 5-day trial of a piece of non-working software. It is unfair! How am I supposed to try it before I buy it? Thank you! Denis.

If you purchase directly from Serif via https://affinity.store you will have a 14-day period (starts when you make the purchase) in which you can get a no-questions-asked refund. So, you could purchase, enter the product key into the trial version to convert it to a full version, and then the Beta would work for you. Just remember to write to affinityreturns@serif.com within the 14-day period if you decide you don't want the program.
