Plan & Licence

Modula has two plans: Free and Pro. Installing it opens a 14-day trial with everything included. The licence is managed in Settings → Plan & Licence.

The trial and its end Starter

The trial starts at installation and lasts 14 days; the days left are shown in the icon menu. At the end, without a licence, Modula switches to the Free plan:

  • your SmartTexts and SmartMails all stay there, and usable;
  • beyond 20 SmartTexts or 5 SmartMails, you can no longer create new ones;
  • site restrictions already set stay applied, but can no longer be changed.
Good to know

The examples installed by the introduction (demo badge) don't count towards the limits.

Buying Pro Starter

In Settings → Plan & Licence, Buy Modula Pro — €9.99/year, or the Go Pro button in the icon menu on the Free plan. Payment is handled by our reseller; you receive a licence key by email.

Good to know

The key is checked at activation, then at most once a day: it's one of Modula's only two connections to the Internet. It only sends the key and its activation ID, never your texts. See Privacy.

Changing or removing a key Advanced

  • Change: Change licence, paste the new key. The old one is only released once the new one is accepted: you're never left without a licence.
  • Remove: Deactivate this licence frees the key for another computer; this one goes back to the Free plan.
