Questions

Before you buy

How do I get my software?

Everything is delivered by download. Your order confirmation email contains the download link and your licence key. Install the software and activate it with that key — most people are designing within minutes.

Does one licence cover Windows and Mac?

No. Windows and Mac are separate products with separate licences. Choose the platform you will install on when you add the product to your cart.

What is the difference between owning it and a term licence?

Own it is a one-time purchase for one computer that you can use for as long as your system supports it, with 12 months of maintenance and support included. A term licence (1 or 3 years) costs less up front and includes every update and upgrade while the term is active.

How do Copilot credits work?

Each Home Design Copilot term includes a monthly credit allowance for AI rendering, asset generation and design help. Copilot needs Punch! 26 for Windows; it is not available on Mac 22.

What is your refund policy?

We offer a full refund within 30 days of purchase on any licence that has not been activated. Activated licences cannot be refunded.
