More Payment Options
Up until now, the only option to buy nWire was through PayPal. We chose PayPal in the first place because it is a nearly ubiquitous payment solution which provides strong security for the buyer. The payment process did go through the PayPal screens, but it did not require a PayPal account. Well, at least in most countries. It worked well for us, except for some isolated cases. Lately, we received more requests from larger business customers to provide an alternative payment method. Most noticeably, we were missing the ability to properly handle purchase orders.
Today, we are adding another way to buy nWire: through our resellers FastSpring. This means more flexible payment options and no dependency on PayPal (although PayPal can still be used). Buying through FastSpring means the invoice will be sent from them and the charges on your credit card bill will appear differently. Otherwise, you will be getting exactly the same license with the same level of support and commitment from us.
We are still be keeping our current option. Mainly because of VAT. FastSpring is located in the US, hence, customers in the US or EU will be paying VAT, excluding EU companies with VAT ID. While this is not a problem, we still want the option for individuals to buy nWire through our direct channel and enjoy a VAT free transaction.
Having two payment options could be confusing, so if you have a question, please send us an email or use the online chat box which appears on our shopping pages when we are online.
