New Purchases (use the regular order form, a PDF file)

You may purchase our programs in either single, multiple or site license form.  

• Single licenses permit the use of the programs on one microcomputer
• Multiple licenses are useful in lab or classroom settings where the software will be used on more than one microcomputer 
• Site licenses allow installation of programs on any number of machines within a single campus.  Site licenses carry the additional benefit of qualifying for processing cost-only upgrades

Each purchase package contains one CD-ROM containing both Windows and Macintosh (when available) versions of the ordered programs and Teacher's Guides for each.  (A Teacher's Guide provides a description of a program, instructions for its use, and teaching strategies.  You can obtain copies of these from our downloads page.)

• If you are increasing your license size, you will receive a discount -- see "Increasing Your Licenses" below

Pricing information is provided in the following table.  The license numbers are provided as examples; we will be happy to provide quotes for other quantities.  Quotes can be obtained by writing to sales@riversci.com. 

Increasing Your Licenses (use the regular order form, a PDF file)

Increasing your licenses is relatively inexpensive.  If after making an initial purchase you decide to increase the number of licenses you own, your cost will be the difference in price between the new number of licenses and what you originally paid. 

For example, suppose you initially purchased 5 licenses for Seasons at a cost of $150 and now wanted to expand to a 30-license.  The cost to you would be the cost of 30 licenses ($330) minus the $150 already paid, or only $180.

You may wish to contact sales@riversci.com for a quote that takes into account your past purchases.
