Publisher pre-order is OK for mac users?


Recommended Posts

Hello beautifull people,

I want to pre-order Publisher but in the email is not specified if there is a new way to obtain your software. In the past Designer and Photo are aveileble only on the App store, this pre-order is it right for the mac people? Have you a new personal shop?

 

cheers

Absolutely it is for MACS.    If you respond to the email, you will be able to preorder directly from the Affinity store, and will receive confirmation of the software order including a lovely surprise.    Affinity will then send you an email reminding you on June 19 — the release date — to download your new Publisher software plus the surprise gift.  I would gladly have paid the full price, but was pleasantly surprised by the 30% discount for beta testers, plus the surprise gift.

When placing a preorder with Chrome and trying to print/save PDF I get a big text over the receipt: 

We no longer support Internet Explorer. Please upgrade your browser to improve your experience. Find out more.

Great. There has not been Explorer for mac for 13 years.

Hi! I'm definitely about to buy Publisher as I have beta already just curious if it will come to Mac App Store with the same discount and gift or is this special offer in serif store only?

Thanks a lot.
 

I'm so happy with affinity!

That amount of discount (30%) is only for beta testers and only via Serif's Affinity Store, from what we've been told. But we (users) expect that there will be a 20% discount for everyone via the Mac and Windows Stores as a launch discount for a short period of time.

Good question about the gift. Only Serif can comment on that, but my guess is that it's the same: only via the Affinity Store.

Thanks for your reaction @walt.farrell

This is amazing even with 20% off and also for full price compared to many other subscription-model tools!

Plus I really enjoy the look of publisher (gui, site, etc.) - so slick and sexy, and so fast with all contemporary features.

I think the OP was asking about Publisher, and the beta tester discount and gift.

Thanks. Then the answer is the opposite of what I said. The 30% discount is (a) serif store only and (b) beta testers only and (c) pre-launch only.

Just tagged your comment to catch you, in case you missed Patrick Connor's note above.  I pre-ordered through the Serif Affinity store, and am all set for the download on June 19!!
