About the GPL License: How you benefit from a legal and transparent 100% model
You've probably seen our pricing and wondered, "how is this possible, is this legal and secure?". It's an excellent question and we love that you ask it, because the answer lies at the heart of WordPress and it's called. General Public License (GPL). On this page, we explain in a clear and simple way what the GPL is and why our business model is not only 100% legal, but one of the biggest advantages of the WordPress ecosystem.
What is the GPL License and why is it the WordPress engine?
The GPL is the constitution of WordPress. It is a free software license that is based on four fundamental freedoms: the freedom to use, study, modify and redistribute the software. WordPress is distributed under this license, and this means that any derivative works, such as plugins and themes, inherit these same freedoms.
Thanks to the GPL, anyone can take a plugin or theme, modify it and re-distribute it. It's what has allowed such an incredibly large and collaborative community to exist.
So, is it legal to sell GPL plugins and themes at a reduced price?
Yes, it is 100% legal. The GPL license allows anyone to redistribute the software. The original developers charge for a package that includes the software along with their direct support and automatic updates via a license key.
What we do at Pillbanana is redistribute the original software, which is our right under the GPL license. Your purchase or subscription with us is not for the software itself (which is free), but for the access to our platform, our curation service (we select the best products), our work to keep them updated and our technical support for installation and configuration.
The Key Difference: Pillbanana vs. "Nulled" or Pirate Sites
This is the most important point. A "nulled" or pirated site takes the original software and modifies it to introduce malicious code (malware), backdoors or ads. Using these products is a huge security risk for your website.
At Pillbananawe guarantee that all of our files are 100% original and without any modification. We get them directly from the developers and offer them to you as is. Your security is non-negotiable.
