this is the requirement
Your annual gross revenue from design work must be less than USD$100,000/year
as far as i know this is only good for a year no info has been given if this will be offered for another year or longer
the auto renewal gets turned off
The automatic renewal will be turned off before your annual subscription of 3ds Max Indie expires.

My guess is that this is for more than one year, and the auto-renewal back to the usual price is to because AD just 'assume' you wanted to do that, right ?
no it was disabled because its not being offered after the 1st year
this is just a pilot program there is no guarantee this will be offered again after a year

Hi @JezEmin
As it was mentioned, the indie program is currently in pilot/exploratory mode and there is no word about an extension of time or scope at the moment. The business and offerings teams are monitoring feedback, such as this thread, to inform future offerings. I don't know how long it will run for, but the intent was not to make it only for your first year practicing. If you continue to meet the requirements, provided the program is still available, you ought to be able to renew again.
The billing system was adjusted to not auto-renew at full pricing by default after the indie licensing expires.

I believe the interest is clear, and there are likely some strategy discussions going on about how this might work at a larger scale, but today is it still a pilot program.

Hi @info89LDY!
First off, welcome to the Community! I just talked with the 3ds Max team and there is not a set date yet but the team is very actively working on it and it will be available worldwide "soon-ish" 🙂 I am sorry I can't provide you an exact time frame but it is in the works and is in the front of the to do list.

but I can only see the one year and three year licensing choices. Is this also because I live in Africa? 😒🤔
