• Tax ID (for EU VAT compliance)
• Payout method setup (Stripe Connect, PayPal, or SEPA)

See Verification for the full process.

Changing pricing

You can change pricing between versions. The new pricing takes effect for new installations. Existing subscribers are not automatically moved to a new plan — they continue on the plan they purchased.

Changing from paid to free: existing purchases remain valid, new users get it free. Changing from free to paid: existing installations remain unlocked for existing users.
