# What is AppSumo?

## Sometimes we recommend AppSumo "deals" to our clients. This is an explanation of what AppSumo is and why we like it.

AppSumo is a platform where software companies offer lifetime deals (LTDs) on their products. Instead of paying a monthly or yearly subscription, you make a one-time purchase and get to use the software forever. This can be a great way to save money on tools you use regularly, but it's important to understand how AppSumo works before you jump in.

**Here's what you need to know:**

1. **AppSumo curates deals:** They partner with companies to bring you the best deals on software. This means they vet the products and ensure they are high quality and meet their standards.
2. **Lifetime deals are not always truly lifetime:** While most deals are for a lifetime, some may have limitations. For example, a deal might include a certain number of years of updates or support. Be sure to read the deal terms carefully before purchasing.
3. **Do Deals Ever Disappear?** Yes, they do. While AppSumo curates their deals (and get better at this over time), they don't have control over conditions like whether or not a software company survives or is purchased by another company. In our experience, less than 2% of the more than 400 lifetime deals we've purchased have gone belly-up (yes, we track!). Plus, in most cases, the lifetime deal cost on AppSumo is less than or equal to 3 months of subscription cost, so you still get your value.
4. **Refund policy:** AppSumo offers a 60-day refund policy on most deals. This gives you a chance to try out the software and make sure it's a good fit for you.
5. **Community and support:** AppSumo has a vibrant community of users who are always willing to help. You can ask questions, get advice, and share your experiences on their forum.
6. **Stacking codes:** AppSumo usually offers stacking codes that allow you to get an additional discount on top of the already discounted price. These codes are found in their email newsletters or on their social media channels.

**Why does WeRX know so much about AppSumo?**

As a technology agnostic solutions provider, it's important that we stay on top of new software development ideas, trends, and uses. So we use AppSumo as a fantastic source of new technology knowledge. It's just one of our technology sources, but it's a good one.

Also, our team must constantly flex our "learning new software" muscles, so we never fall behind the curve in technology knowledge. We learn new software programs every single month so we can help our customers with any software question that comes along.

**Why should you buy a lifetime deal through AppSumo?**

- **Save money:** LTDs can save you a significant amount of money compared to traditional subscription models.
- **Discover new tools:** AppSumo is a great way to find new software you might not have discovered otherwise.
- **Support indie developers:** By purchasing LTDs, you are directly supporting small and independent software companies.

**Is it safe to buy a lifetime deal through AppSumo?**

Yes, AppSumo is a reputable platform with a good track record. They have been in business for over a decade and have served millions of customers. However, as with any online purchase, it's important to do your research and read the deal terms carefully before buying.

If you are considering buying a lifetime deal, AppSumo is a great place to start. With their curated deals, generous refund policy, and supportive community, you can feel confident that you are getting a good value for your money.
