Terms of Service

01Who we are

Applantic (“Applantic”, “we”, “us”) is a Delaware C corporation. Address: Delaware, United States. For everything (questions, support, refunds, legal notices), write to ask@applantic.co. We answer within a day.

02The agreement you’re accepting

These Terms of Service govern every purchase from applantic.co and your use of the site. The License, the Refund Policy, and the Disclosures are part of this agreement; the Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data. By buying, you accept all of them as they stand at the time of your purchase; later changes never rewrite a purchase you already made.

Buyers must be 18 or older. Under 18, a parent or legal guardian makes the purchase and accepts these terms. If you buy for a company, you confirm you’re allowed to bind it, and “you” means the company. Nothing in these terms reduces consumer rights that the law where you live says can’t be waived.

03What we sell

Each product is a finished software application sold as a downloadable folder of source code, assets, and step-by-step guides, offered in tiers whose contents are listed on the product page and repeated in your order recap. The product page’s description, spec sheet, and tier lists as of your purchase define what you’re buying.

Product names shown in the store (for example “Toast”) are working titles: you receive the app to publish under your own name and brand, as the License describes. Where a product is distributed through the Apple App Store and Google Play, publishing requires your own developer accounts and the stores’ approval, which is theirs to give, as the Disclosures explain.

04Ordering, prices, and taxes

Prices are in US dollars and include any applicable sales tax or VAT; the price you see is the price you pay. Where tax applies, it’s calculated from your billing details and broken out on your receipt. Payments are processed by Stripe; your card details go to Stripe, never to us. Your price is the price shown at your checkout; we can change listed prices at any time, and a change never affects a completed purchase. A purchase is complete when payment is confirmed, and delivery follows immediately.

05Delivery

Delivery is instant and digital. Your personal download link appears on the confirmation page and in your receipt email. Links are personal and time-limited, and renewable. Your purchase includes re-download access for 12 months, and the link always serves the current version of the folder. Don’t share your link. If a link expires or anything fails, email us and we’ll restore access.

By buying digital content that delivers immediately, you agree that delivery starts right away. Our 14-day refund applies regardless, and any statutory withdrawal rights where you live are unaffected.

06Updates

Every purchase includes 12 months of code updates to the purchased app: fixes, compatibility work for operating-system and store-policy changes, and whatever improvements we ship in that window. Pull them whenever you want by re-downloading. Updates are reasonable-efforts work; we don’t promise specific features or dates. After 12 months your license continues unchanged; only the update stream ends.

07Upgrading your tier

Within 12 months of a purchase you can move to a higher tier of the same app: email us, pay the difference between what you paid and the higher tier’s current price, and we deliver the additional tier contents. An upgrade to Done For You enters the service flow in section 10.

08What stays your responsibility

You publish the app as your own product, so its life in the world is yours: the developer and service accounts it runs on (and their fees), the truthfulness of your store listing and marketing, and your published app’s compliance with law and store policy, including a privacy policy for your app and any disclosures its category requires. The included guides walk you through that work; the responsibility is the publisher’s, and the publisher is you.

You also agree not to use the site or the software for anything unlawful, and to comply with applicable export-control and sanctions rules.

09Third-party services

The apps are built to run on third-party services named in each product’s spec sheet: for example, the Apple and Google developer programs, and services for backend, subscriptions, and AI. Demo mode runs with none of them connected; live features need your own accounts, under those providers’ terms and prices, which are theirs, not ours. We don’t control third parties. If one changes or discontinues something, our remedy is the update work in section 6 during your update window.

10Done For You: service terms

The Done For You tier adds a launch service to the software license. This section is the whole deal, both directions.

Scope. Our team executes the full make-it-yours pass on your copy: your name, icon, positioning, store listing, screenshots, and pricing, built from a short brand questionnaire. We then handle submission under your own developer accounts. Not included: custom feature development, marketing or advertising, and operating the app after launch.

Kickoff. Work begins when we’ve received your completed brand questionnaire and confirmed kickoff in writing. Until then you can cancel for a full refund at any time, regardless of the 14-day window.

What you do. Open your own Apple Developer ($99/yr) and Google Play ($25) accounts; we walk you through it. Complete the stores’ paid-apps agreements and tax and banking forms; the stores require the account holder to do these personally, and subscriptions can’t go live without them. Answer the questionnaire, respond to our questions within 14 days, and grant us role-based team access in App Store Connect and Google Play Console; we never ask for or accept passwords, and you remain the account holder throughout.

Timeline. We aim to submit within 14 days of kickoff. “Typically live in about 14 days” is a good-faith target, not a promise; review time belongs to the stores. One structural caveat: a new personal Google Play account must pass Google’s required closed-testing period before it can publish to production, which can add two weeks or more (organization accounts are exempt; we advise on this at intake).

The promise. For products distributed through the app stores: if we can’t get your app approved on both the App Store and Google Play, you receive a full refund of your Done For You purchase. We revise and resubmit as needed for up to 90 days from first submission; if both approvals haven’t landed by then, the promise triggers automatically. If we haven’t made your first submission within 30 days of kickoff, for reasons not on your side, the same promise applies. If one store approves and the other doesn’t, you choose: (a) the full refund (your license ends and the approved app comes down), or (b) keep the approved app, and we refund the difference between what you paid for Done For You and the Launch Kit price at the time of your purchase.

What the promise doesn’t cover. The refund doesn’t apply where approval fails because of things on your side: developer accounts that are suspended, unverified, or unpaid; declining changes we reasonably recommend to satisfy review; content you supply that violates store policy; going unresponsive for more than 14 days; or changing your brand direction after kickoff. Store developer fees are paid to Apple and Google and aren’t ours to refund.

Changing your mind after kickoff. You keep the software and every Launch Kit deliverable. Of the amount you paid above the Launch Kit price, we refund the milestones we haven’t started: the make-it-yours pass is 40%, listing and screenshots 30%, submission 30%.

Your brand, your assets. Everything we produce for you (listing copy, screenshots, brand assets) is yours on completion, assigned in full. We keep your intake confidential and use it only to deliver the service.

11Refunds

Every purchase carries a 14-day, no-questions refund. The Refund Policy is the complete statement and is part of these terms. A refund ends the license.

12Your license

What you may do with the code (one commercial app, unlimited modification, the agency option, transfer with a sale of your app) is defined by the License, which is part of these terms.

13Reviews

The buyer wall shows reviews from verified buyers only. If you submit one, you confirm you actually bought the app and you allow us to display the review with the name and context you provide (or remove it on your request). We don’t seed, purchase, or invent reviews.

14What we promise about the software, and what we don’t

We promise the app materially matches its product page and spec sheet as of your purchase, and builds and runs as demonstrated on the operating-system and tooling versions listed there. If it doesn’t, tell us; we’ll fix it or refund you.

Beyond that, the software is provided “as is”: to the extent your law allows, we disclaim implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. And to be plain about the thing that matters most: we sell software, not outcomes. Nothing on this site is a promise about revenue. The Disclosures are part of these terms.

15Limits on liability

To the extent your law allows, neither side is liable to the other for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for lost profits or revenue; and our total liability for claims arising from a purchase is capped at the amount you paid for that purchase. Nothing in this section limits liability that can’t legally be limited (such as fraud or willful misconduct) or reduces mandatory consumer rights.

16If your app draws a claim

You’ll defend and cover us against third-party claims arising from the app you publish (your listing, your brand, your content, your compliance), except to the extent a claim arises from the unmodified code exactly as we delivered it.

17Disputes: Delaware law, individual arbitration, your opt-out

This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. Before anything formal, email us; most things resolve in one thread. Both sides agree to try in good faith for 60 days from written notice of a dispute before starting a proceeding.

If that fails, disputes are resolved by binding individual arbitration before the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, and both sides waive class actions and jury trials. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. Either side may instead use small-claims court for a qualifying claim, or seek an injunction in court for misuse of intellectual property.

Opt-out. You can reject arbitration entirely, with no effect on your purchase, by emailing ask@applantic.co within 30 days of your first purchase, with your name and order email. If you opt out (or a claim isn’t arbitrable), disputes go to the state and federal courts located in Delaware.

If you’re a consumer somewhere that guarantees you local courts or doesn’t allow mandatory arbitration (the EU and UK, for example), those protections stand and this section doesn’t take them away. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable for a claim, that claim proceeds in court, not arbitration.

18The rest

If a part of these terms is unenforceable, the rest stands. These terms plus the documents named in section 2 are the entire agreement for a purchase. We may assign this agreement in a sale of our business; you may transfer your license as the License describes. We may update these terms; changes apply to future purchases, never retroactively to yours. Notices to us go to ask@applantic.co; notices to you go to the email on your order.
