BT not a Bait & switch, right?

As I am researching whether to become a member, I read this: https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/bt-server-installation.pdf Which says this: "API Keys are obtained by upgrading your account in your buzztouch.com control panel. Choose the Self Hosted account when upgrading. The fee for a Self Hosted account is $29.99 per month. This fee will allow you to use the buzztouch.com API to package applications up to 100 times per month. Contact us if you need to package applications more than 100 times per month." I was under the impression that with the special right now of $49.99 per year, it was a full year of UNLIMITED apps for the full year. Am I mistaken? Please explain.

Hey mate, The PDF is very very outdated, that was the old payment plan. This is, as you have found out, not the same case. You are not mistaken, the special you mentioned is correct. Cheers, David https://buzztouchmods.com

Hi there, The packahes have just recently changed (6th jan 2013). one of the old (more confusing) packages was the monthly fee of $29.99 per month for teh self hosted version. This has since been simplified and the price has been drastically reduced to on $50 per YEAR !! Obviously they have not yet managed to check for old text which is what that was. Good pick up tho !! I am sure David will now quickly look to fix that up. Also there it is unlimited apps on your contril panel, the limit of 100 API submissions is not the number of apps but the number of time you download the source code per month (create a new app etc), but I believ BT is not to strict on this, with a mail to the admin you could get it extended I am sure. Hope that puts your mind at ease. ps. Welcome to BT !!

@HowAreYou No crazy smoke and mirrors 49.99 a year is the price! Sorry for the outdated PDF. We are so busy trying to roll out new features we missed that one. Tony Buzztouch Team

Ya, don't believe everything you read, even if you read it here, lol! I was a pretty basic member until they rolled out the new prices. See the badge? It speaks volumes. Cheers! -- smug

Freeappbuilder. Good stuff. @Tony: The old .PDF included in the self hosted download was your job! Ha...so kidding. When 2.1.8 is released we'll update the .pdf.
