SonaChat · Licence terms

Two licences. The same software.

Both licences give you the full SonaChat, with the source code. The only difference is whether anyone pays you to use it.

Last updated 21 September 2026

For your own business

Regular licence

$59 USD, once · €59 in the euro area

One live installation for your own business, plus a test copy
As many team members and WhatsApp numbers of your own as you need
Change the code however you like
Nobody pays you to use it — no client plans, no setup fees

For agencies

Extended licence

$169 USD, once · €169 in the euro area

Everything in Regular
Serve as many client companies as you like from your installation
Charge them — monthly plans, setup fees — through your own Stripe
Each client company with its own inbox and its own team

What both licences include

The full source code: server, panel and installer.
The step-by-step manual.
6 months of support from the day you buy, answered within 24 hours on business days. Support covers installing SonaChat and fixing anything that does not work as described. It does not cover custom changes or your hosting.
Updates, downloaded with the same key, for as long as SonaChat is updated.

What neither licence allows

You can sell the service SonaChat gives your clients. You cannot sell or give away SonaChat itself:

no reselling, sharing or publishing the source code or the download package;
no offering it as a script, template or product for other people to install;
no publishing or sharing your licence key.

How SonaChat knows which licence you have

Your licence key carries it. The key is checked on your own server, with no call to us, and nothing is ever switched off by it.

With a Regular key, when a second client company is added or client billing is turned on, the panel shows a short note that this needs the Extended licence. It is information, not a lock — everything keeps working.

Moving from Regular to Extended

You pay only the difference: $110 USD (€110 in the euro area). The upgrade link is in the receipt of your Regular purchase and on the download page. Paste your Regular key, pay, and a new Extended key appears on the screen and in your e-mail.

Paste the new key in the panel, under System, and the note disappears. Each Regular key can be upgraded once.

If a licence is used outside these terms

SonaChat keeps running — we never switch it off. What stops is support and updates for that key. Moving to the licence that fits brings both back.

Refunds

If SonaChat does not work as described on this page and in the manual, and we cannot fix it, we refund you in full. Write to support@saoirsesoftware.com within 30 days of buying, tell us what goes wrong, and give us the chance to fix it first. The same applies to the $110 upgrade.

We do not refund a change of mind, a feature SonaChat never claimed to have, or a server that does not meet the requirements in the manual. That is what the live demo and the manual are for: try them before you buy.

The source code is yours the moment the payment clears. That is why, at checkout, you tick that you want the download to start at once and understand that this ends the 14-day right to cancel that EU law gives consumers. A refund ends the licence it refunds.

These terms are offered by Saoirse Software Limited, a company registered in Ireland (CRO 819296), and are governed by the law of Ireland. Nothing here takes away any right you have by law. Questions about which licence you need: write to help@saoirsesoftware.com before you buy.
