PHONEPAD CARE PLAN
Your PhonePad licence includes 12 months of free updates and support. When that period ends, the optional Care Plan keeps the updates coming — at a fraction of the original licence cost.

what's included
One Care Plan price covers your entire PhonePad installation — the base licence and any add-ons you own. Nothing is excluded, nothing is charged separately.
All major and minor updates
Every new version of PhonePad released during your Care Plan period is yours to download and install — at no extra cost. New features, improvements, and fixes, all included.
Covers all your PhonePad products
Your Care Plan is based on your PhonePad licence, but it covers everything — PhonePad, MessageSender, Appointment Calendar, and PhonePad Web. One plan, the whole suite.
Free priority email support
Care Plan holders receive priority email support with a 24-hour response target on business days. Send us a question or report an issue and we'll get back to you promptly.
Free remote support (at our discretion)
For issues that genuinely can't be resolved by email, we may offer a remote support session at no charge to Care Plan holders. Without an active Care Plan, remote support is available at A$85 per session.
Peace of mind
Knowing your software is current and supported means one less thing to worry about. When a new version is released, you're not left behind on an older version wondering what you're missing.
No auto-renewal
We never charge you automatically. You'll receive reminder emails before your Care Plan expires and can choose to renew when it suits you. No surprises on your credit card statement.
how it works
Renewing your Care Plan takes minutes and keeps everything running smoothly.
01
Included with licence
Every PhonePad licence includes 12 months of free updates and support from the date of purchase. Nothing extra to do.
02
You're reminded before it expires
We send you several reminder emails before your Care Plan expires so you have plenty of time to decide whether to renew.
03
Renew in PhonePad or by email link
Renewal is done directly through PhonePad or via the link in your reminder email. Your Client Number and Serial Number are passed automatically — no manual entry needed.
04
Instantly active
Once renewed, your Care Plan is updated automatically in PhonePad. No reinstallation, no licence file to import — it just updates in the background.

questions
Everything you need to know about the PhonePad Care Plan.
How much does the Care Plan cost?
The Care Plan renewal is 40% of your original PhonePad licence price, for 12 months. For example, a 5-user licence originally purchased at A$225 renews at A$90 inc. GST per year.
How do I renew?
You can renew directly through PhonePad (under Help → Renew Care Plan) or via the link provided in your renewal reminder emails. Your Client Number and Serial Number are passed automatically — there's nothing to manually enter.
Will I be charged automatically?
No. We never auto-renew or auto-charge. You'll receive reminder emails before your Care Plan expires and can choose to renew at your own convenience. Completely your choice every year.
What if I let it lapse for a year or two?
No problem — you only pay for the current year when you renew. There are no back-dated charges, no penalties, and no awkward conversations. Just renew when you're ready and you're covered from that point forward.
Does the Care Plan cover all my PhonePad products?
Yes. The Care Plan is based on your PhonePad licence cost but covers everything — PhonePad, MessageSender, Appointment Calendar, and PhonePad Web. You don't pay separately for each add-on.
What's the difference between the Care Plan and just keeping the software I have?
Without an active Care Plan, PhonePad keeps working exactly as it does now — you just won't receive new updates or be able to access support. If you're happy with the current version and don't need new features, that's a perfectly valid choice.
When does the Care Plan activate after renewal?
Immediately. Once payment is processed, your Care Plan status is updated automatically in PhonePad — no reinstallation, no licence file to import, nothing to configure. It just updates in the background.
Is remote support always included?
Remote support is available at our discretion with an active Care Plan — at no charge. Without a current Care Plan, remote support is available at A$85 per session. We always try to resolve issues by email first — it's faster and more efficient for most problems. Remote support is offered when email genuinely isn't sufficient to resolve the issue.
