Can I pay by bank/wire transfer?
It depends on the type of license you are buying.
Commercial licenses (companies and organizations)
Yes. Companies and other organizations purchasing annual subscriptions of commercial licenses can pay by bank/wire transfer:
- Proforma invoice – payment is made in advance. Once we receive it, the licenses are issued together with the final invoice.
- Purchase order (Net 30 invoice) – available to existing customers only. We provide a quotation first. You submit a purchase order referencing the quotation, and we issue an invoice with a 30-day payment term. New customers who wish to pay by bank/wire transfer can get a proforma invoice, unless an exception is agreed with a sales representative.
The required bank information is listed on the proforma or purchase invoice. To get a quotation, contact Sales Support. See also Payment methods: Proforma invoice vs Net 30 invoice.
Personal licenses (individuals)
No. Personal licenses are paid online at the time of purchase, with a debit or credit card or via PayPal. Bank/wire transfer, proforma invoices and Net 30 invoices are not available for personal licenses.
Who needs a commercial license?
Personal licenses are only for individuals who pay with their own funds. A company or any other business entity can't buy, pay for, or reimburse a personal license. That's part of the Toolbox Subscription Agreement for Individual Customers.
If the license is paid for by a company, you need a commercial license. This also applies if you want the invoice issued to a company or want to use a company's VAT/Tax ID. See What is the difference between commercial and personal licenses?
I have a personal quote, but my company needs to pay
Contact Sales Support and ask for a commercial quotation. Include the organization name, the billing address, and the Tax ID, if applicable. The commercial quote can then be paid by bank/wire transfer as described above. If you already have a personal subscription that your organization will use or pay for, see Personal license: Converting to a commercial subscription.
