Substance Subscription Changes

Starting November 2019, Substance Alchemist will be officially launched at the end of its beta-phase, and automatically added to Substance subscription at no additional cost. Furthermore, perpetual licenses will not be sold through our substance3D.com website anymore. However, those who have mainetance plans, will be able to renew them until October 31, 2020. Perpetual licenses will be sold through Steam.

Starting November 2019, Substance Alchemist will be officially launched at the end of its beta-phase, and automatically added to the Substance subscription at no additional cost. The Substance subscription will then grant full access and upgrades to:

• Substance Painter
• Substance Alchemist
• Substance Designer 
• 30 downloads/month on Substance Source

Pricing remains the same for the Substance Indie monthly subscription and Substance Pro subscription. Indie annual subscription price will decrease starting November 2019, from $239 to $219. If you own a perpetual Indie license and wish to move to annual subscription before December 31st 2019, you get a discounted price at $149 (instead of $219). Pro annual subscription is at $990 per year per user.

The new subscriptions will not include buy-out option anymore. If you have been a subscriber before November 2019, you will be able to exercise your buy-out option for Substance Painter and Substance Designer until October 31, 2020 (as a reminder, the rent-to-own conversion to perpetual does not include Substance Alchemist).

Perpetual licenses will not be sold through the substance3D.com website anymore. You can still purchase perpetual Indie licenses for Substance Painter and Substance Designer through Steam.

The perpetual licenses you already own remain active.

• For Indie, you will be able to renew your maintenance until October 31, 2020, for $75 per application.
• For Pro, you will be able to renew your maintenance until October 31, 2020, from $490 per application.
