Today I was busy with the commercial part of Waegis! After finalizing the PayPal payment process, I worked on the final pricing. I announced this new pricing with regard to user feedback on the first Waegis survey.

I also announced a launch discount offer that applies 40% off discounts on all commercial API keys as a promotion plan for the final version. With this offer, Waegis API keys are fairly cheap and this is a good opportunity to apply for your own in a limited time.

I think that Waegis will be released to the web during the next week so you only have a few days to apply for your own commercial API key with this discount. After that, you can apply with the actual prices.

Waegis offers five account type plans including Free, Standard, Professional, Enterprise and Custom plans.

As is obvious, Free plan costs nothing and is suitable for small sites and blogs. Custom plan is also for those who need less limitations than Enterprise plan.

Based on statistics that I could collect during Alpha and Beta periods as well as the information that users had left in the survey, I tried to define the most appropriate pricing for the service. I think that current limitations and prices are good for many of the webmasters, site owners and bloggers and I try to be very flexible about all the exceptions.

Here you can see the pricing and plan definitions for all account types at a glance (after applying the launch discount offer).

The process of applying for a commercial API key is pretty simple. You need to have a PayPal account that is free and secure and is the most common payment method for such sites. You log into your account on Waegis and navigate to dashboard where you can find a link that is titled with your API key account type. Clicking on this link, you can navigate to a new page to choose your new commercial account type and the period of the term. There are two options for a 6 months and 12 months term and you get one month for free if you apply for a 12 months term.

The rest of the process is just a regular payment process. Once we receive your payment, we will upgrade your API key to the new account type!

Note that with applying for a commercial API key not only you can benefit from less limitations and more quality but also you support us to keep our progress in making a cleaner web.
