I believe there is a solution for that.

Correct me if I am wrong but I think you should set the price in Euro and then convert it on the fly when someone decide to pay in dollars.

Makes sense yes but we prefer to keep the prices static as far as possible and pretty looking (nice round numbers) USD is our most popular currency as well.

Hello everyone,

Just to let you know that we're updating the pricing of Construct 2 next week on the 22nd May to the following amounts:

Personal Edition

$119 USD to $129.99

€99 EUR to €99.99

£79 GBP to £79.99

Business Edition

$399 USD to $429.99

€329 EUR to €329.99

£259 GBP to £259.99

Business Edition Upgrade

$280 USD to $299.99

€230 EUR to €229.99

£180 GBP to £179.99

The main reason USD pricing is rising is because the USD -> GBP exchange rate since we set the price to $119 has dropped significantly. Currently a $119 USD sale gives us ~£70 GBP after fees from our payment processor which is almost a £10 less than what sell it for in GBP*

We hope you all understand the changes!

* Beware of buying in USD when your card/banks balance is not in USD, it may actually end up costing you more from bank fees.

The new forum changed the URL structure of the forum, this is currently being reindexed. Google webmaster tools is showing the sitemaps are fine, but is just taking a long time to crawl all the urls in them! The vast majority of old URLS are being correctly 301 forwarded.

I think it will all be back to normal in a month or so. (No idea how long google will take!)
