How does purchasing directly from Advanced Quonset Technology Inc. work and what do I receive?

Once you complete the purchase with PayPal we get notified you have made a purchase. We then send you download instructions for the HCA flavor you purchased and a registration key. Usually the download email arrives on the same day you purchased if made during business hours and the next morning if made at other times. At the slowest, you should receive email from us within 2 business days after you make the purchase with PayPal. If you have not received email from us within 2 business days, please contact Technical Support and be sure to include a phone number as occasionally our emails get killed by junk mail filters. When that happens we need a different way of contacting you.

The download instructions contain a link to where you can download the Current Version and instructions on how to download and install. We do not currently ship any of our products in hard media format.

If you are purchasing an upgrade please allow extra time for the download email to arrive as processing is not automated - we must manually check the registration database to confirm your previous purchase. In may be 24 hours until you receive the download instructions. If you have not received the download email within 48 hours please contact technical support.

Before purchasing with PayPal please check that the email address your PayPal account is linked to is correct and is your current email address. This is the way we contact you to complete your purchase and if the email address in your PayPal account isn't correct we will be unable to do that.
