FAQ

Common questions

The fee split is baked into the zkApp circuit itself — not enforced by our servers. When you deploy your app, the circuit's logic (including the 2% split to the platform address) is compiled into the verification key. Changing the split would produce a different verification key, which your buyers' apps would reject. It's mathematically enforced.
Tier upgrades are checked at the start of each calendar month based on your total active (non-expired) licenses across all apps. When you cross a threshold, the new fee rate applies to all purchases from that point forward. If you drop back below a threshold, you return to the lower tier after a 60-day grace period.
No. The platform fee is calculated as a percentage of the payment amount. Free licenses (0 MINA) incur no fee. Free licenses do count toward your active license total for volume tier purposes.
License prices are denominated in MINA on-chain. The buyer page shows an estimated USD equivalent based on current market rates, but the actual transaction amount is always in MINA. USD-pegged pricing (using an on-chain oracle) is planned for a future release.
Nothing breaks. The zkApp lives on Mina blockchain — it doesn't require our servers. Your buyers' proof files remain valid indefinitely. The SDK verification is entirely client-side. The only thing that stops working is the hosted buyer page at zklicensing.com — but since the verification key is baked into your app, users who already have a proof file are completely unaffected.
Yes — if you enable the refund window during registration, buyers can trigger a refund transaction within 14 days. The MINA is returned on-chain and the proof is invalidated. Refunds are optional and set by you as the developer.
