Discount Ninja version 3 was released a while ago. Version 3 is a brand new product, re-built from scratch to incorporate all the feedback we received since version 1.
It has a great set of new features and promotion types that are designed to improve conversion and average order value.
Version 1, launched in 2017, will be phased out. If you are currently using Discount Ninja version 1 you will automatically be migrated to version 3 on January 31st 2020.

How does this affect me?
Version 1 will no longer continue to operate after January 31st 2020.

If you prefer not to continue, you can simply uninstall the app. If you decide to continue to boost your sales with Discount Ninja, you'll need to request a migration and set up your promotions in the new Discount Ninja app.
Will I need to pay more?
No. As a thank you for being a long time user, your price will remain the same (i.e. $14.95/month for Premium version 1 users).
