Pricing (†)
(†) If you already have a subscription at a lower price, it will automatically remain the same and no action is required from you, unless you cancel your subscription or the auto-renewal payment fails.
The subscription plan has two options for you to choose from, depending on your preferences and requirements:
Monthly subscription at 16 USD per user per month
Annual subscription at 96 USD per user per year (8 USD per user per month)
Occasionally, we may offer promotional discounts. It would be advertised on this website top banner and through add-on announcements
We are offering the premium plan at no charge to G Suite for Education and Nonprofits for all users in their domains
Rationale
We introduced the Advanced Premium Plan for the Mapping Sheets add-on, as a way to make this project sustainable, while continuing to improve and support the add-on, as we have done for quite some time.
We understand that the Basic Free Plan might not fulfill the requirements of some users
We chose a small (monthly or annual) contribution aiming to make it quite affordable to most users
However, if you need to use the premium features and cannot currently pay for the subscription, we are willing to consider and accommodate your requirements. Please contact us if you would like to discuss this further.

About automatic renewals
When you subscribe to the Advanced Premium Plan, you will get an annual or monthly automatic subscription renewal charge from PayPal, unless your subscription is cancelled before the renewal day
There is no renewal alert/notification from PayPal ahead of renewal date, as far as we know, however
For annual subscriptions, we will send you a renewal reminder email on the previous month of your renewal date, so you are aware of the coming automatic renewal payment
About using PayPal
We use the PayPal gateway to process the subscriptions, mostly because it is widely available and well trusted around the world
You can pay by any major credit card or using a PayPal account
We have no access to your credit card or PayPal account, as PayPal says ... "Your personal and financial information is securely stored (at PayPal) and never shared with merchants when you pay."
Other relevant notes
About changing the Google account email associated with the premium plan
There is no way to transfer a subscription to another account. It is associated with the account you were using at the time of subscribing
However, if you have a real need, just let us know by submitting a Feedback ticket, with the explanations and the email accounts involved
Why is our Mapping solution so affordable?
We get that question quite often, so we are trying to list the few reasons that might explain it below:
We don't host your data, so we have no servers to configure, maintain and protect
We have much less to do than other apps concerning privacy and data protection because the information you map is always under your control within your Google account
The software development costs are partially covered by extended custom Mapping solutions we build for selected clients
We are (still) a small and nimble team
Due to all of the above reasons, we are (in most cases) able to charge for a whole year what other similar solutions charge per month. Pricing is low but fair for everyone involved.
