Checkout
No PayPal account? No problem.
PayPal runs the checkout, but you can pay as a guest with any debit/credit card or Apple Pay — no account and no sign-up required. Here's exactly what you'll see, step by step.
1
Choose how to pay
After you tap Buy now with PayPal, a PayPal window opens — you don't have to log in. Tap Apple Pay, or Pay with Debit or Credit Card, to check out as a guest. Your total shows $24.99 USD.
2
Enter your email
Type an email address and tap Continue to Payment. Use an inbox you can reach — this is where we send your serial number, so pick the email you'll check after buying.
3
Turn off “Create my PayPal account”
After your card details, PayPal pre-selects creating an account — the toggle is on and it asks you to make a password. Switch that toggle off. You don't need a PayPal account to buy Spiralyst Lab.
4
Pay as a guest
With the toggle off, the password field disappears and the button changes to Pay now as guest. Tap it to finish, then return to this tab — your 1-year serial arrives by email.
Your card stays private. We never see or store your card details — PayPal charges your card directly. You're paying the developer through their own PayPal account — not a third-party reseller.
Why a one-year license?
Because old software in the wild is a security problem — for you and for us.
Your serial is valid for one year. That's deliberate: it keeps everyone on a current, code-signed, notarized, supported build — not a decade-old copy running unpatched code. When the year is up, renew at the same honest price and keep creating. You're always on a fresh, maintained version.
