Buy a Jude License

You can purchase the standard edition of Jude, or Jude Pro. Single-user licenses are available, as are discounted site licenses that support 5, 10, 25, 50, 75, or 100 concurrent users. (Prices are listed below). Licenses are valid in perpetuity, with no annual maintenance fee. Licenses are valid for any version of Jude up to, but not including, Jude 2.0. That is, there is no upgrade fee for 1.xx versions of Jude. (It took me five years to reach the 1.0 release, so I don't expect to be releasing a version 2.0 anytime soon!) Since evaluation licenses for Jude are available, I do not allow refunds of Jude purchases. Please try before you buy.

Jude licenses are currently available through two secure online payment processors:

Paypal

This is my preferred payment provider, because I've been able to completely automate it. When you pay through Paypal, a license is automatically e-mailed to you; you don't have to wait for me to read my email and send you a license.

Paypal supports credit card transactions, and also accepts electronic checks. They support many major world currencies.

Paypal is easier to use than many people think. Yes, it can be a real pain to set up a verified Paypal account to buy electronics or other expensive items on ebay. But to buy Jude, you just need to enter your credit card information, just as you would for any other online purchase.

Amazon.com Honor System

If you've bought books from Amazon.com, then they already have your information on file, and this may be the easiest way for you to pay for Jude. It is not an automated system, which means that you'll have to wait for me to send you a license manually. It also means that I've set the prices a little higher as a kind of a "handling charge". If you use this payment option, please continue using your evaluation license (or download another) until you get your real license from me.

Note that transaction limits imposed by Amazon mean that you can use this payment option only to buy single-user licenses.
