Perpetual Software license
$1,499 one time

Before you choose
A few useful answers.
Payment-processing and courier charges, domain registration and renewal, optional mailboxes, separately agreed third-party licenses and applicable taxes are additional and billed by your providers. Chyve does not charge fees on your transactions or sales.
Does Software include hosting or website maintenance?
You supply and maintain your WordPress site and hosting. Chyve supplies software releases and product support. Choose Hosted for an operated ordering service, or Site + Ops for a complete website with hosting.
Compare the three packagesDo I need online ordering or a payment processor?
Online selling is optional. Use the food tools on their own, or connect supported checkout and a suitable payment account. Your provider charges its own processing fees; Chyve adds no transaction or sales fee. See the payment-processor FAQ for setup help and published examples.
