Yes. Every purchase includes the 99Plugs Update Manager, and it puts your premium plugin and theme updates in your WordPress dashboard, right next to the free ones.
How it works
Without us, updating a premium plugin means going to the developer’s site, logging in, downloading a zip, and uploading it to WordPress. For every plugin. Every time a new version drops.
With the Update Manager installed, the update appears in your dashboard. You click update. That is the whole thing. It runs on the native WordPress updater, so there is no separate screen and no extra step to remember.
How fast
We check for new versions daily and aim to have them ready within 24 to 48 hours of the developer’s release.
That is a real number and we publish it rather than promise you instant. We are a redistributor, and a day or two is what redistribution looks like. If there is one plugin your business genuinely needs same-day updates for, buy that one from the developer. For everything else the gap does not matter.
How long updates last
An annual pass, or an individual 365 day purchase, gives you a year of updates. Lifetime purchases and the Lifetime VIP Access Pass do not stop.
Setting it up
How to enable auto updates is the procedure. It takes about five minutes on a site.
You can also skip the whole thing and download new versions by hand from your account dashboard on 99plugs.com whenever you like. Most people install the Update Manager once and never think about it again.
