Questions about billing

[Zachery]

To use the Mobile suite you need a forum or publishing suite license. The mobile suite is not a stand alone product, it only integrates with vBulletin.

One license of what? The a forum license (publishing, or forum classic) is required for the vBulletin mobile suite.

So I only need the license if I'm using a mobile suite?

If you purchase the mobile suite, please don't forget that:

(For iOS)

A) you need access to a Mac computer to compile the iOS (iDevices...) version and...
B) you need a Apple developer account which is $99/year. (paid to Apple of course)

For Android, it's a one time charge of $25.

I can obviously assume I should get a VPS over a dedicated server?

Starting with a VPS is cheaper and allows you to start growing. If you think you'll outgrow a VPS quickly, then have a dedicated server picked out so that you cam migrate if needed.

If possible, start off with any low level VPS. Then based on traffic, increase to better package.

Also, I assume I'd also need to find a good host to be able to handle lot's of members etc + compatibility to the software?

The publishing suite is a one time fee, the mobile suite has a one time fee plus optional renewal after 12 months. The the publishing suite is the deluxe version of the forum classic license.
Nothing will be auto billed to you after your initial purchase.

Ok, I was going to consider buying the publishing suite + mobile package. I assume I'd need to buy one license too?

I was going to purchase the publishing suite + mobile suite for $469 but I was curious about the billing cycle. I assume it's yearly? or am I wrong and in fact it's actually Monthly?

Also would I require to purchase the 'Forum License' package or is it including with the publishing one? Or is it just optional
