New pricing for the SOTESHOP AI store

From February 15, 2026, a new pricing plan for using the SOTESHOP AI store will apply. Take advantage of the time until February 14, 2026 and order or renew your license at the lower price.

If your service expires in 2026, you can save money by paying in advance before February 15, 2026. If you use monthly services, it is worth considering an annual payment — in practice, the annual payment equals 10 monthly subscriptions, which means 2 months are free.

New store update system

Download updates before January 30, 2026.

In October 2025, we implemented a new update system for the SOTESHOP store. Due to the change in update technology, the old update system repository will remain active until January 30, 2026. The previously announced deadline of December 31, 2025 was changed at customers’ request due to the sensitive holiday and New Year period, however, this new deadline can no longer be postponed.

After the old repository is disabled, it will no longer be possible to download updates automatically. In that case, a one-time manual change of the update system in the store will be required, which will involve an additional fee.

This change does not apply to stores that perform an update between October 24, 2025 and January 30, 2026. A regular update is sufficient, and the store will automatically switch to the new system.

If you have not downloaded updates after October 24, 2025, please do not delay. We recommend updating your store at least once a month.

Summary

Update your store and renew your subscription now. Make sure your store has been updated after October 24, 2025 — until January 30, 2026, it is still possible to download updates automatically. If your service expires in 2026, take advantage of the lower prices until February 14, 2026.

To pay for the service in advance, please contact us at office@sote.pl
