The fine print

Plain pricing. Plain answers.

Is Charged UI really free?

Yes. The base theme is GPL on Drupal.org and always will be. Pro subscriptions fund its development, not the other way around.

Is Charged Studio free too?

Yes. Studio is free for everyone, and local development will never be paywalled. It is in active development now; join the list and you will get the first builds.

What happens if I cancel Pro?

Nothing breaks. Components you have already shipped keep working, and the code you have stays yours. You stop receiving new components, updates, and priority support.

What counts as a developer seat?

Anyone who builds with Pro components: writing templates, composing SDC components, or extending the library. Editors and content authors never need a seat.

How are seats enforced?

Through access, not surveillance. Each seat is a personal token for our Composer registry, and teams manage theirs from one dashboard (CI gets a shared token that does not use a seat). Nothing you ship phones home, ever. If seats lapse, installs and updates stop; your sites do not.

Do you offer education or nonprofit discounts?

Yes. Universities, schools, and registered nonprofits get 30% off Pro. Mention your institution when you get in touch.

Can we pay by invoice or purchase order?

Team licenses, yes. We are used to procurement: quotes, vendor forms, and net-30 invoicing are all fine.
