How is this program paid for. I found it under a FREE sight. What does it actually cost?
Is it a yearly payment for license?

There is a free and a paid QCAD version available. The free version is absolutely free but limited in functionality compared with the paid version.

Download QCAD Provisional Trial (which can after testing be converted to the free QCAD Community Version).

No. If you buy a QCAD version it is yours and you can use it as long as you like. But the free updates will end after one year - if you like to keep up with all new developments of QCAD after one year you can buy a update license which has which is right now sweetened with a 30% rebate.

About the upgrade license...

Does the discount apply even if it is more than a year since I purchased the program?

I want to buy the upgrade.
