The JUCE Licensing FAQ

Where can I find the full terms and conditions?

You can find the full end user licence agreement (EULA) here. The JUCE EULA is the legal contract you enter into when using JUCE. This FAQ provides only a high level summary of parts of the EULA and does not replace or supersede any of the information in it.

How does the revenue limit apply?

You can find the details here.

Can I use a previous version of JUCE using a JUCE 9 licence?

A JUCE 9 licence grants you the right to use all previous versions of JUCE, under the terms of the JUCE 9 licence.

I purchased an older version of JUCE. Can I upgrade to JUCE 9?

Previous JUCE 5, JUCE 6, JUCE 7 and JUCE 8 licence holders receive a 30% discount on upgrades to JUCE 9 perpetual licences. If you are logged in to your account on juce.com and your email address is listed as an “Owner” of a JUCE 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 licence in your account dashboard then you are eligible. The discount will appear during the checkout when you purchase a JUCE 9 perpetual licence. If you do not see a 30% discount please contact sales@juce.com before making a purchase.

Upgrade discounts are not available for subscription licences.

Do I need a JUCE licence if I am not releasing products containing JUCE?

JUCE is dual licensed under both the JUCE licence and the AGPLv3.

This means that you can choose to use JUCE under the terms of the AGPLv3 licence. If you are not “propagating” or “conveying” closed-source software containing JUCE outside of your organisation then you may still be within the terms of the open-source AGPLv3. Please refer to the AGPLv3 terms for the full details.

If you are not using JUCE under the AGPLv3 then you will require a JUCE licence. You will need to maintain a licence for at least the duration over which you are distributing closed-source binaries containing JUCE.

Who do I contact if I have questions about licensing?

The JUCE team does not offer legal advice. The JUCE EULA is written to be as clear as possible, and it is up to JUCE users to ensure that they are complying with the terms. If you have a specific query about the language in the EULA, of if your use case falls into one of the cases where the EULA asks you to contact us, please reach out to sales@juce.com.

Can I switch between a perpetual licence and monthly licence?

We don’t offer the option to automatically switch between perpetual and monthly licences. If you are past the end of your subscription’s minimum term then you can cancel your subscription and purchase a perpetual licence.

Do you offer an annual subscription?

We only offer monthly subscriptions.

Can I pay via a bank transfer?

If you are purchasing perpetual licences then we can issue you an invoice to be paid via bank transfer. Bank transfers must be in USD to our bank account in the US.

Please create an account and contact sales@juce.com letting us know your order details and your full billing address.

It is not possible to pay for a subscription licence using a bank transfer.

Can I pay via a purchase order?

Yes, if you can pay via bank transfer.

Do you work with resellers?

Yes, but it is only possible to purchase perpetual licences and we will need to issue the reseller an invoice before payment. Please do not use our online shop. The invoice can be paid using a bank transfer or a credit card.

If the reseller’s client does not already have an account on juce.com the client will need to create one.

Please contact sales@juce.com letting us know the email address your client’s account on juce.com, the order details and your full billing address.

We don’t offer a reseller discount, but the reseller’s clients may still be eligible for upgrade discounts.

Can you provide a sales quote?

Yes. Please contact sales@juce.com letting us know your order details and your full billing address.
