Most software companies require payment for upgrades and ongoing support, some up to the full price of the original software if you did not purchase within the last year or two. Others, such as Adobe, now charge annual subscription fees just to use their software, which I know most people do not like.
I’m an independent developer and have been offering PhiMatrix since 2004 for a one-time purchase cost. I want to be fair to you, but I’m finding that a one-time payment for the customer with support time and costs that go on for many years isn’t a good business model for me.
Accordingly I’d like to ask for your support in one of two ways.
Gold Annual Support Service
If you can, please subscribe to my PhiMatrix Annual Gold Support service. Only $7 per year includes software updates, email support for technical questions, assistance with lost licenses and occasional news updates. You can unsubscribe at any time.
PhiMatrix Golden Circle Supporter
Alternatively, you can also show your support with a one time payment, and join my PhiMatrix Golden Circle support club. The “golden circle” is a concept that expresses not just what you sell, or how you sell it, but why you do what you do:
PhiMatrix is an expression of my passion to help others to better see the design and beauty in the world around them, and to then create beauty in their unique own way.
Some of you may only use PhiMatrix occasionally. Some of you live in countries where even one US dollar is very expensive. Many of you though have shared that PhiMatrix has changed the way you work and create, and are using it every day to earn a good living. Whatever PhiMatrix has meant to you, your gesture of appreciation would mean a lot to me:
As always, I’m available to help you with any questions or issues you have.
Thanks much for your support!

“The Golden Ratio – The Divine Beauty of Mathematics”
If you haven’t already heard, my passion for this topic led to a publisher to ask me to write a book on the golden ratio, which was published in 2018.
“The Golden Ratio – The Divine Beauty of Mathematics“ is available from Amazon and all other book sellers. I’m happy to say that it’s getting very good reviews, with over 82% 5 star reviews on Amazon. It’s available in English, German, Spanish, Dutch and Japanese.
If you already have a copy, I thank you for your support and ask that you please leave a review on Amazon.
