Terminology
Definition of terms that are mentioned in the ARC licensing system:
Subscription - A per-seat license model with a monthly/annual payment to unlock all features of the ARC Software.
Seat (license) - The number of available seats within a subscription. Each seat is specific to a PC and can be managed on the subscription account page.
Associated Account - Additional Synthiam accounts can share your subscription and assign your seats to their computers. You can view what account the seats have been assigned to in the subscription account page.
Premium Support - Direct access to ARC robot support experts to solve your programming challenge. Your tickets are given priority attention.ARC Pro Payment Methods
The payment screen has 2 options for payment. Using #1 & #2 highlighted above, you can enter the details of a credit card or visa debit card. Option #3 allows additional payment options directly through our financial provider.
Please note: to use Apple Pay or Google Pay, you must be logged in and using one of those devices during checkout. The device is connected to the payment system and therefore you checkout in a web browser on that device.
The Check-out Process
1) Visit ARC product page.
2) Click the View Plans button to view ARC Pro subscription plans.
3) Select the duration of the subscription plan. Note that there's a 10% discount for an annual subscription.
4) Select how many seats (licenses) you would like to have for your ARC subscription. The default pricing is for 2. That means ARC will be able to run on 2 different machines at the same time.

6) Select your method of payment (PayPal, Apple Pay, Microsoft Pay, Google Pay, or Credit Card).
