What does "per seat" mean?
A seat is one user of the Altium extension. Buy one seat for each engineer who makes Placemate files. One seat costs $25 once and is valid for life.
Is Placemate a subscription?
No. You pay $25 per seat once, and the seat is yours for life. There is no subscription and no account.
Do I get new versions?
Yes, all of them. A seat is a lifetime licence for all versions of Placemate, also the future ones. The link in your purchase e-mail always downloads the current version.
Can our company pay by invoice?
Yes, from 4 seats. Fill in the invoice form on the pricing page, with a purchase order number if you need one. Stripe sends the invoice by e-mail. Pay it within 30 days on the invoice page of Stripe, by card or a local payment method. The download link comes by e-mail as soon as the payment arrives.
Is there a price for 10 seats or more?
Yes. For 10 seats or more we make you a custom price. Write to contact@fermium.ch with the number of seats.
What do I get after the payment?
The confirmation page shows the download link of the Windows Setup program right after the payment. We also send the link by e-mail. The Setup program installs the Altium extension and the placemate command-line tool.
Can I get an invoice with our VAT number?
Yes. Enter your company name and VAT number in the checkout. Stripe sends the invoice by e-mail.
Does the person who assembles the board need a licence?
No. The seat is for the person who makes the files in Altium. Anyone can open a Placemate HTML file in a current browser on a PC, a tablet or a phone, without an installation and without an account.
Which Altium versions does Placemate support?
Placemate supports Altium Designer 26 (AD26) and Altium Develop on Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit. The Setup program finds every Altium installation on the computer and installs the extension into the ones you select.
Can I try Placemate before I buy it?
