Business is the all-features plan. Resource limits such as products, API allowance and registered devices still apply as shown on the live pricing comparison. Your software’s own device/seat limits also apply; Business does not make every customer license unlimited.
Which plan is checked?
The server checks the developer workspace’s effective KDPika subscription. Calling a software plan “Business”, changing a form field or sending a different price does not unlock platform features. A paid subscription whose access period has ended is projected to Free for access decisions. Existing private lifetime/owner grants keep their assigned privileges without becoming public plans or granting administrative roles to other accounts.
Upgrade and downgrade behavior
Unavailable operations return PLAN_UPGRADE_REQUIRED (403), with a feature name, required plan and /billing upgrade URL. A Pro seat configuration above 10 returns PLAN_LIMIT_REACHED (403). Dashboard controls show upgrade guidance instead of pretending the feature was saved.
Existing data is preserved after a downgrade. New floating access/renewal requires an eligible plan, but a customer can still check in or deactivate. Pro applies its 10-seat cap when a saved license previously had a larger configured cap. Portal sessions and credit operations are checked again on the server; saved settings or a previous login cannot bypass the current plan. Previously issued offline permissions last only until their signed deadlines; no server can reach an offline app instantly.
Not included
Custom-domain portal hosting, hardware attestation, unbreakable anti-piracy and an on-premise license server are not included. The portal has no payment, invoice, refund or sales features. Browser-only JS hardware binding is unsupported. PHP long jobs need explicit tick() calls to renew shared seats.
SDK release boundary
Fingerprint, floating and credit support exists in the updated sources for Python, Node.js, Rust, PHP and C#. This website update does not publish package releases. Earlier registry versions and immutable ZIP downloads predate that contract; read SDK compatibility before integrating.
