Product Description
You know how clients always ask for that “compare at” price, or the Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP), on their WooCommerce products? Buying the official license for a plugin that does just that can be surprisingly steep, especially when you’re building out multiple client sites. That’s where getting the WooCommerce MSRP Pricing plugin via GPL Guru is a total game-changer. You get full access to this premium functionality for a fraction of the original cost, no strings attached.
So, what’s the deal with GPL? It stands for GNU General Public License, and it’s basically the legal framework that lets us redistribute these premium plugins and themes. When a developer releases a product under GPL, it means anyone can use it, modify it, and redistribute it. We’re just leveraging that license to pass the savings directly to you. It’s 100% legit, completely ethical, and totally legal.
Now, let’s be upfront about the trade-offs. While you get the exact same powerful plugin, you won’t get direct support from the original developers, nor will you get automatic updates through your WordPress dashboard. But honestly, most of the time, the community (and a quick Google search) can help with common issues. And for updates, we regularly provide the latest versions for you to download and update manually. It’s a small trade-off for not spending a fortune, especially if you’re comfortable with WordPress basics.
For agencies and freelancers, this is gold. Think about it: you can install the WooCommerce MSRP Pricing plugin on an unlimited number of your client sites. No more buying multiple licenses or explaining a hefty software line item to your clients. You buy it once here, and it’s yours to deploy wherever you need that MSRP functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this plugin legal and safe to use?
A: Absolutely. All plugins and themes we offer are licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). This means we’re legally entitled to redistribute them, and you’re legally entitled to use them on as many sites as you wish. It’s the beauty of open-source licensing.
Q: How do I get updates for the plugin?
A: Since you don’t get direct access to the original developer’s update server, you’ll need to download the latest version from your GPL Guru account. We regularly update our repository with the newest versions as soon as they’re released by the original authors. Then, you can simply upload and replace the older version in your WordPress admin.
Q: What about support?
A: We don’t provide direct technical support for the functionality of the plugin itself, as that’s handled by the original developers for their paying customers. However, for common issues, the plugin’s documentation (which is often publicly available) or a quick search usually does the trick. Plus, the WordPress community is vast and super helpful.
Q: Why is it so much cheaper than buying from the original author?
A: It all comes down to the GPL. We acquire these plugins under the GPL, which permits us to redistribute them. We don’t include official support or automatic updates (which are often the most expensive parts of the original license), so we can offer them at a significantly reduced cost, passing the savings directly to you!
