What a license covers.
The full terms are in the End User License Agreement and the Refund Policy.
Five Macs
One license installs on up to five Macs you own or control: a desktop, a laptop, a spare. Each license is issued to one named individual and covers that person’s Macs.
A one-time purchase
There is no recurring charge and nothing to cancel. The license is perpetual: it never expires, and it is not a floating or concurrent-use seat.
12 months of updates
Your updates window runs for twelve months from the date of purchase. Every version released inside it is covered and stays yours.
The last covered version is yours forever
The newest version covered by your license keeps working on all five Macs after the updates window ends.
Versions released afterward
They are not covered by your purchase. If you install one it will run with Community features.
14-day refund, no questions
Email support within 14 days and we refund in full, with no reason required. Polar Software Inc. is our Merchant of Record, so Polar handles tax and issues the refund to your original payment method. Your statutory consumer rights apply on top of this.
Activation works offline and registers the Mac when it is next online. A license is active on up to five Macs at a time. Free a place from Settings › License. The application re-validates your license periodically afterward. See the Privacy Policy for details of what it sends.

Before you buy.
Do I have to pay to evaluate it?
No. Download MFCommander to evaluate the paid features. When the trial ends, the application continues as Community.
Which edition do I need?
If you work with files on your own Mac, Community is the whole product. Choose Pro when you need to reach a server, NAS, bucket, or cloud drive from inside the app. Choose Infra when you also work with Kubernetes clusters or Docker.
What currency, and who charges me?
Prices are in US dollars. Polar Software Inc. is our Merchant of Record, so Polar takes the payment, applies any sales tax or VAT your jurisdiction requires, and sends the receipt. Polar appears on your payment statement.
Can I buy several licenses for a team?
Yes. A license is issued to one named individual, so a team needs one each. Email [email protected] for volume pricing and a single invoice.
What if I lose my license key?
Have it resent to the address you bought with from the license recovery page. No support ticket required.
Try it with your own files and connections.
No account or credit card is required.
