Summary (TL;DR)
- New Subscription Model: We're introducing monthly keys and will sell a limited number of lifetime keys each month.
- Price Changes: Monthly keys will be $2.99 USD and lifetime keys will be $19.99 USD.
- Sunsetting Robux Payment: We are phasing out Robux as a payment option, please check our other resellers if they can accept Robux.
- Old Key System: The free key system is being phased out due to widespread bypassing.
- Existing Lifetime Keys: If you already have a lifetime key, it is unaffected and will continue to work.
What's Changing?
1. The Key System is Being Phased Out
We are sunsetting the old key system. We understand this may be disappointing, but it's a necessary step to ensure mspaint can be sustained long-term.
2. Introducing a New Subscription Model
- Monthly Keys: These will be our new standard, granting access for 30 days after activation.
- Limited Lifetime Keys: We aren't getting rid of lifetime keys entirely. A limited quantity will be sold each month at a fixed price. Once they're gone, you'll have to wait until the next month's batch.
3. Robux Payment is Being Phased Out
We are discontinuing Robux as a payment option. If you wanted to buy via Robux, please check our other resellers to see if they can accept it.
This does not mean that existing keys will stop working. If you have a key, it will continue to work.
4. Price Changes
We are adjusting our prices to better reflect the value of mspaint and to ensure its sustainability:
- Monthly Key: $2.99 USD / R$ 15.00
- Lifetime Key: $19.99 USD / R$ 100.00
How Does This Affect You?
✅ For Existing Lifetime Key Holders
Your key is safe. It will continue to work for as long as the product is available. Nothing changes for you.
🔄 For Users of the free Key System
Your current key will work until it expires. Afterward, you will need to switch to the new subscription model to continue using mspaint.
Why Are We Making This Change?
The Goal: To cover our essential monthly expenses ($40 USD) and keep mspaint running.
The Problem: The key system was being bypassed and the previous lifetime key model wasn't gonna to be sustainable long term.
We saw a major conflict in our data:
-
📉 Revenue was declining...
-
📈 ...while product usage was hitting all-time highs.
Bypassing directly undermines mspaint, into which we've poured immense effort (the script alone is over 62,000 lines of code).
We are implmenting the new subscription model in the hopes it will provide a stable and fair way to support mspaint's continued development.
